The City Is Calling - Rocky Votolato

The city is calling

Everybody is searching for the keys

To all the prisons that the cruel and kind intention can create

The boys and girls of winter gather at the end of November

To drink the drops of joys and sorrows from each others dripping trees

All of life’s secrets are in your branches

Make sure it’s the truth before you write it down kids

Stair at the kiss-marks on a spiderman notebook

Waxy sweetness, to explore every degree of your mental health

Much better to pass into that other world

In the full glory of the passions that you found here

Than to fade and wither with age

From watching the flickering light dim in the eyes of the living

All of life’s secrets are in your branches

Make sure it’s the truth before you write it down kids

Stair at the kiss-marks on a spiderman notebook

To explore every degree of your mental health

Save up all of your innocence and grow the ripe fruit

To explore every degree of your mental health
