THE SIDEKICKS LYRICS

"The Island"

When this horrid sea started boring me

thats when I knew these days would get longer.

When my own inventions became common place

I realized I had become a bit ordinary.

When out of breaking clouds, came a brighter sky

I realized I should probably look up more often

When my instincts order me, I always give in.

Cause no matter how much I dress myself up, I'm still an animal.



And I inch myself towards let go

I inch myself like a wrecking ball into shadows.



When missing you became normal state

Thats when I knew these days would get much longer.

When you come to stay and then you go away

I usually only remember the goodbye.

But I've got years to waste and I'm plenty wasteful.

I've got a bomb for every structure that I've crafted.

And I'm thankful, I'm plenty cynical

With a giant question mark placed after my every statement.



So on this island

I hold close to me

a few things that I won't let go.

Clutching them so they won't wash away.
