Young Volcanoes Lyrics by Calvary Dominique

Dance, the World is Ending! - EP

2020

[Chorus]
Our mouths may be shut but
We're just some young volcanoes
Waiting to erupt today
They threw our dreams in the trash
Told us to put on our masks
So we dare not stray
But we're emotional wrecks
And we feel like specks of dust
And we're just wasting away
But don't you fade away
We need you to stay
I just came to say...
[Verse 1]
Tick tick tock goes the time's clock
Like a ticking time bomb that's waiting to explode
Before we can even manage to grow up and feel old
Zenosyne, pick a side, pay no mind to the fact that we're all dying
But I'm like, memento mori, you all bore me
Not afraid to be larger than life
Cause the status quo is so meh, I'll create my own reality
Cause I have seventeen films to make
And I have to write like fifteen books by the time I'm thirty-five
So naturally, I just lie on my bed and fantasize instead of doing it
So I'm gonna kindly ask you to get out my way
If you won't help me feel alive
Just help me feel alive
Please help me feel alive
[Bridge]
(You know what we've done gang?
We've defied all the laws of nature
That's what we've done!
We've created a living, breathing, spending man
Out of sheets of paper and little plastic cards)
(There may be only minutes, seconds left in someone's life. Why waste time?)
(I don't think I understand. I don't think I ever could...)
[Chorus]
Our mouths may be shut but
We're just some young volcanoes
Waiting to erupt today
They threw our dreams in the trash
Told us to put on our masks
So we dare not stray
But we're emotional wrecks
And we feel like specks of dust
And we're just wasting away
But don't you fade away
We need you to stay
I just came to say...
[Verse 2]
A blank page is the scariest thing for a writer
Way scarier than death, taxes, or spiders
Cause you've gotta deliver
And if you don't deliver, your voice'll just quiver
And your body will shake
And you'll start to wonder if you are a mistake
So sorry for getting a bit manic
But I'm so far behind that I had to panic
I wanna be organic
But I feel like a basket case like Green Day
But hey, maybe if the kid thinks intensely about the past
It will morph into what he wants it to be
And the future will be as clear as can be
So sorry about that
I disassociate sometimes
Cause my mind's a landmine
But when I take a deep breath
I know it's gonna be... fine
It's gonna be fine...
