Glossary - Pretty Things lyrics

Artist: Glossary

album: Feral Fire


We are not the first to be
We won't be the last
We're looking to the future
Banking on the past
It's still the middle-ages here
We are immature
Somewhere between bitten nails
And our first manicure
We are not the first to be
They'll be something next
We're actors trying to improvise
While sticking to the text
But we are not beyond despair
And it is my belief
That only art can break
But that love will bring relief
Onward, onward, we must go to the ends of the earth
Just to plant another flag that says "We are not the first"
We are not the first to be
We are not alone
We're treading in their footprints
In a land we thought unknown
From the sea, we found the land
Built a boat and sailed
Some of us had second thoughts
And turned back into whales
Deeper, deeper, we must go on a sea that is cursed
We never think ahead, we are not the first
We are not the first to be
We are not the world
We're a just a holy singles club
Of lonely boys and girls
Who come together once awhile
To compare notes and converse
And trade our baby carriage in
For a handsome little hearse
Downward, downward we must go beyond the final verse
We won't be the last because we were not the first
