"Ursa Major" lyrics

"Ursa Major"

Gotta shake off all the dust
They say to do what you love
But how do you love things once you are forced to do them?
While the gods hang their heads
And we all worship the dead
And the conman sings that he knows the way

Well, I don't know want to know
'Cause secrets only grow

No one gives it away
If there's one thing I know
You always pay
One way or another

Gotta get off of this crutch
I know I use it too much
But I need to sleep more than I need to be needed
And the world spins away
But it's just more of the same
And I find my name is something to be forgotten

'Cause I don't want to know
How far we've got to row

No one gives it away
If there's one thing I know
You always pay
One way or another

One way or another

Get your feet in line
And step in time
'Cause time, like tides, waits for no one
My heart's wrapped in twine
If love is blind
Then I see you plain as day
And I know curtain call
Will always fall
Much sooner than you would want it
I know curtain call
Will always fall
Much sooner than you would want it

I don't know wanna know
'Cause secrets always grow
Yeah, I don't know wanna know
How far we still must row
