Dust Storm

Pictures came back from Mars, a new golden age we're told
Mars had rivers, lakes, and seas but they've never seem to take hold
And in the emptiness my mind goes back to you

We live beneath, we live above and we live below
All of us next to each other, we're so utterly alone
And we were in this all together, now we'rе on our own

And you learn tendernеss is essential
And you learn the only thing I know
Is how we hold each other right now

Make do with someone new, but it's too scary to ignore
It won't dent my isolation, and we change what we're looking for
Still, we've learned what's worth our time and what's a bore

And you learn tenderness is essential
And you learn the only thing I know
Is how we hold each other right now

Like a dust storm we got caught
I came out with the balance of an astronaut
Meet me in the garden by the road, and we'll drive up the coast
I've been sleepwalking all year, but I didn't give up this ghost
And it all seems like we've been so alone
And the veil lives on death we lived in
No more proxies and no more stand in's, skies open up
The only thing I know is how we hold each other right now
Ooh, the only thing I know is how we hold each other right now
