Phenomena Lyrics by Cole Davidson

0

Look at this not by how they told us
But for how it really is
It’s just a rat race to the picket fence
Then sadness closes in
Alongside the emptiness around us
‘Cause we’ll shoot off for the hills
Craving safety
Never know how low the loneliness will feel
Because we handle riches really well
Eyes turn from white to green
We leave behind the flower children
With whom we were meant to scream
When it’s good
"Oh it’s good, oh it’s good
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good, oh it’s good"
It could’ve changed the world for you
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good,
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good
Those three words
Could’ve changed the world for us
You can’t be so goddamn open-minded
And still say "c’est la vie"
No I won’t apologize for my manners
Because what happens today
Is just a stone’s throw from
Tomorrow’s yesterday’s phenomena
From tomorrow’s yesterday’s phenomena
The energy here’s different darling
I belong along the carbon smoke trails
Across the fields
Snowflaked forests ‘tween our heaters burning
Nostalgia tip-toed to me like a ballerina would
If she was dressed in oak and maple leaves
With breath December blue
And eyes like summer in the creek
I asked Nostalgia is that you
She smiled and handed me a voodoo doll
That smelled the way you do
She said the stitching is made of hammock thread
From one not long ago
When you would swing with flower children
With whom you will start a home
When it’s good
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good
It could’ve changed the world for you
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good,
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good
Those three words
Could’ve changed the world for us
You can’t be so goddamn open-minded
And still say "c’est la vie"
No I won’t apologize for my manners
Because what happens today
Is just a stone’s throw from
Tomorrow’s yesterday’s phenomena
From tomorrow’s yesterday’s phenomena
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good, oh it’s good
It could’ve changed the world for you
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good,
Oh it’s good, oh it’s good
Those three words
Could’ve changed the world for us
You can’t be so goddamn open-minded
And still say "c’est la vie"
No I won’t apologize for my manners
Because what happens today
Is just a stone’s throw from
Tomorrow’s yesterday’s phenomena
From tomorrow’s yesterday’s phenomena
