Tomorrow's from No Backtracking by Evan McCormick

Tomorrow’s looking good, sun is in the sky and temperatures are high.
A good day for a walk. Don’t sigh again, please don’t sigh.

A body’s been in bed too long: our eyelids stink of lead.
Let’s kick the door into splinters. Sleep is for the dead. I’m not dead; you’re not dead.

We’ve got two bikes, do you want to ride with me? We’ll see what we see
And get out of this fucking town please, please ride away with me.

And the heart is gone, but it’s all good, it’s all fine, it’s alright
As the center falls: but what went wrong? What’s left behind?

Oh it’s what you see, and what you don’t
On the horizon where the future makes its home

It’s all the little endings and it’s the flood
Of information sapping liters of your blood

It’s all the memories I could have made
If I had only found the right words to say

Oh it’s if only, if only: rest and wait.
I know tomorrow’s looking good, but not today

There you are, not too far, on the edge of it all,
Don’t come near, it’s you I fear, you will make me fall.

In my room, cradle tomb, I am safe and sound
My future dear, have no fear, you will not be found

TV’s on; Static Buzz, Sparks along the wire
That’s ok, help will come, stare into the fire

The armed command, moves by hand, mountains in my head,
But even hills know how to kill, they will soon be dead.

And their commanding general sits in a box, throws dice and waits for the stars to align
as the center falls: but what went wrong? What’s left behind?

Oh it’s what you see, and what you don’t
On the horizon where the future makes its home

Oh It’s the old times ending and it’s the flood
Of information sapping liters of your blood

It’s all the memories I could have made
If I had only found the right words to say

Oh it’s if only, if only: rest and wait.
I know tomorrow’s looking good, but not today

Tomorrow’s looking good, sun is in the sky and temperatures are high.
A good day for a walk. Don’t sigh again, please don’t sigh.
