Opening Statement Lyrics by Hard Working Americans

Rest In Chaos

2016

[Verse 1]
Before I refuse to take any questions
I've got an opening statement
I’d like to keep to myself
'Cause I'm open to the idea
My death may well defy all of my logic
And my imagination

[Chorus]
I may never know this road I'm on
The here-and-now or the gone
The coming home or the running away

[Verse 2]
We were light and sound
Before a darker matter
Froze us into what
We are for now
Too late, over in a minute
Losing a fight 'fore I knew I was in it
Just kept me swinging 'til long after I knew
That it was over

[Chorus]
I may never know this road I'm on
The here-and-now or the gone
The coming home or the running away
You gon' miss my laugh someday
Somewhere along the way
Somewhere along the way

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
We're frozen like light
We're frozen sound like
We're seven billion different people
Out walking around
Going down that road
Feeling bad because that's just what people do
Like every night is a Friday night
And every day is a Friday night too

[Chorus]
I may never know which road I'm on
The here-and-now or the gone
The coming home or the running away
You gonna miss my laugh someday
Somewhere along the way
Somewhere along the way
Somewhere along the way
