We Will Rebuild

from Return To Solar by Fingerpaint

lyrics

Tomorrow is a backward notion because it never comes always another day away from me.
The past is always present at the back of my head and so my future it dictates, like leaving coffee stains on blueprints of grand ideas in a really inconvenient place.

If I was a marionette with a thousand useless strings, could you help me find the right ones so I can move my limbs, into a positive direction put my best foot forward one more time with feeling.
Help me be the better man, a vital part in my own master plan.

Underneath it all we’re rather similar from flesh to bones to organs without melodies and I for one miss the way we used to sing.
I lost my voice a few months back when my passion lacked a sense of motivation, you recognised my plight and jumped the first train to self obsessed.

If I was a marionette with a thousand useless strings, could you help me find the right ones so I can move my limbs, into a positive direction put my best foot forward one more time with feeling.
Help me be the better man, a vital part in my own master plan.

When I saw you fleeing down the track I didn’t know that you’d be back with my friends in tow.
I jumped to false conclusions like the pessimist I am I thought I’d have to go this alone,
You were out there humming songs we used to sing and gathering supportive hand to tighten all my strings.

I used to be a marionette with a thousand useless strings, but I can walk now, stand proud and tower over things.
I owe my strength to all my friends, you in particular and the way see this is not a passing trend,.
You are the reason I’m a better man, .a vital part in all my future plans.
