lyrics

VIEWFINDER

Viewfinder, viewfinder
Never saw a day so bright
It’s a blue sky, blue sky
Time to step up and into the light

And if my eyes sink back in my head
Won’t you pluck ‘em out and roll ‘em ahead
The world of the living
Is where I’m living now

There was a time I was high up on the line
Never thought I wanted to come down

Bus driver, bus driver
Never seen teeth so white
With a smile like that
You can drive me wherever you like

You know I’ve been doing pretty good in school
I’ve been feeling pretty close to you
The wrecks we’ve been part of
They’re behind us for now

There was a time
I was high up on the line
Never thought I wanted to come down
Lately I’ve been standing
In a shadow of a cloud
Waiting for the sun to come back out

Jetliner, jetliner
Watch you dissolve in the clouds
On the ground back in town
There’s always big news when you’re not around

The reason there’s a fence ‘round that old cemetery
They didn’t want you skipping in and out
It’s a safe bet to take
You won’t be away that long…

CHORUS
