Friko Certainty Lyrics

Barely awake as the arm rushes by
Six seven eight o'clock eight thirty nine
There's a hole in the ceiling, it's bleeding you dry
Something ain't working
No, something ain't right

So you sit up and aim for the door without sound
An exit's an answer, at least for right now
And your feet hit the carpet
And start to excite
Cause days like today, they come once in a lifetime
Only once in a while

Now you're out through the door with the sun in your eyes
Stepped to the sidewalk, hopped over the lines
And the salt is like lava, the snow solid ground
Well, wasn't it winter three months ago now?

Huddled up on the Red line
You nap on the way
Out past the school where those children would play
And the shine of their wings
Would put salt in your eyes
Today it's the train but tomorrow we'll fly

In the background, I'll be there
Cause some things never leave you
And in the off chance you see me
Come waste your breath on me, babe
In the background I'll be there
Cause some things never leave you
And in the off chance you see me
Come waste your breath on me, babe

Back on the bus, take it up to the lake
Hot on the tracks now just miles away And you slip on the ice, send your face to the ground
God, wasn't it winter three months ago now?
In the sand there's a castle with magical things
Cattails and dust bunnies
Apples and rings

And it grants you a wish, so you ask for the stars
Says that's not what we do here, but here's where you'll start
There's a boat by the shoreline, I've made it for you
There's no need for maps now, it knows what to do
There's a crack in the distance, a break in the clouds
A hole in the background
Yes, a hole in the background

And soon as you sell
To that wall in the sky
You notice the crack in the cloud to your right
So you tap on it once and tap on it twice
It opens up slowly and boldly you cry
"Well, I'm certain there's something, I'm certain there's more
I'm certain there's somebody right through that door
Yes, I'm certain there's something, I'm certain there's more
I'm certain there's somebody right through that door
I'm sure of it
Yes, I'm sure of it
Oh, I'm sure of it"

In the background I'll be there
In the background I'll be there
In the background I'll be there
In the background I'll be there
