Lyrics

Strike
By Jeffrey C. Capps

Sunshine spilling out across a favorite place
In-line, stack them up and fire up the parade
So far, so bad is all that you can see
There’s no stars, blow them out for all eternity

Watch them shimmer and then explode
It’s all this life has ever known

Okay, sometimes it’s hard to follow through
But don’t say you try your best to keep it true
Silence, his voice it always gets in the way
Violence, it’s handed down, you just gotta pay

Strike the sweet frame and disappear
Strike the sweet frame and disappear
Strike the sweet frame and disappear

And we failed you again
So afraid and alone and then
And we failed you again
A new beginning finds the same old end
A new beginning finds the same old ending

Strike the sweet frame and disappear
Strike the sweet frame and disappear
Strike the sweet frame and disappear
Strike the sweet frame and disappear
Strike the sweet frame and disappear

Don’t let me disappear
