Forward Never Straight Lyrics

Dear Mother: This is no time to complain
There is something bigger than the task at hand
I've been lost and found in the sky and underground
And I can firmly say that you don't understand

Dear Samuel: I hope the west has what you wanted
When you close your eyes do you still dream of home?
I'm sure the timing's right this year for me to finally disappear
And stake my claim in warm and foreign ground

I'm just waiting for that day to come
So that I can go far away

Dear Everyone That I've Ever Encountered:
I'm sure that you've got all your plans to break the mold Don't hold your breath; callous hearts mean swollen heads
And first things swell then they explode!

Dear Samuel: Was it really worth it?
You're 50,000 miles away from home
We give love by the inch but we take it by the mile
And we wonder why so many feel alone

Will anybody miss you when you're gone?
No guarantees, just promises
So strike your matches, start your fires
Sooner or later, all goes dark
We're bound by instinct and desire
It's in our eyes and in our hearts.
