The 2016 Song - Tessa Netting

There you were on the floor, cut up And all alone, I'll help you Conceived in a chrome dream, I was a crease In the shirt that this world wears Till I met Blue, I was in obscurity, he said Loosen up, who do you wanna be? We could steal a car and listen to the stars I can see you've choked on them too Had enough of late night films Just enough for an hour or two Oh, blue, show me something new Hey, blue, show me something new Blue, I've got a question every time I hold you Yeah, blue, I've got a question every time I swallow you, it's true Spike danced for ten days long We were just heading for the sun You shot him down, there's blood on my face His heart's in the right place What they gonna do to you? What they gonna do? Blue, don't forget the word, I warned you Oh, blue, don't let them push you, don't let them destroy you Meanwhile, I'm searching with my brain blown eyes See the world through my dirty, lonely, mixed up mind

Sometimes I can't see past a day I know I'm growin' tired and I feel it, yeah And the song that I sing when the notes begin to ring It's hard for my head to get into the melody, yeah Day to day, I tell you Day by day I see faces all around me When they start to smile I just stop for a while And I say baby let me love you A small town store with an old wooden floor The old man inside sellin' dry goods Has a smile on his face Don't you know that's hard to replace I bet he's gonna live to be a hundred, yeah Day to day, I tell you Day by day I see faces all around me When they start to smile I just stop for a while And I say baby let me love you Summer is hot and the winter is cold People all doin' just what they're told It's too bad, it's too sad Thinkin' for yourself is a hard thing to do Well, don't you know they're depending on you To see them through, yeah To see them through It's the only thing you can do You know you got to see them through Shinin' my light like a candle so bright Show me the way to my future, yeah With your hand on my face Take me far from this place Honey, I'll be the key to your heavenly door Hear me, baby, calling to you now Don't you know now baby, well, they're countin' on you See me, baby, reachin' for you For you, reachin' out for you, baby Don't you see me reachin' out for you Hear me, baby, hear me callin' to you Don't you know, baby, that I'm countin' on you To see me through

Deep as a river, wide as the sea Changin' the ways of a captain and me I could be happy, Lord, so then should he If all of the Universe, unveiled itself to me So then a day flows into night Down the street the beggar man who finds himself in wine If I am a good man and sure in all my ways The captain of a starship that's homeward bound today Growin', growin', changin' every day Knowin', showin' all my worldly ways Hear the chimes, hear how they ring Markin' time all through the day A whisper, an answer, a cry in the night Break down, turn around, a feelin' of fright The Indian, the black man, the Asian who see A door that is opening, and they're goin' to be free Growin', growin', changin' every day Knowin', showin' all my worldly ways Hear the chimes, hear how they ring Markin' time all through the day We are all acceptable, we are all a place in time Movin' through a passageway, bringin' forth the end of time Growin', growin', changin' every day Knowin', showin' all my worldly ways Hear the chimes, hear how they ring Markin' time all through the day Light the fire, start the day, mark the light that shows the way Changin' times of fortunes past, we will all be free at last We are the people of the round about We are the sails upon the sea We're gonna be there when everybody laughs about The way that we are changin', you and me, yeah We are the people of the round about We are the sails upon the sea We're gonna be there when everybody laughs about The way that we are changin', you and me We are the people of the round about We are the sails upon the sea
