Minus} - Tired Eyes

Copied!

Spinning out of control
Sailing off the tracks
Knuckles white on the wheel
Yet there’s nothing to grasp

All for the sake of tired eyes
Ripped down the seams on the ride

Choking down the dust
Coughing up the debris
Arms outstretched to the sun
All but poised to break free

All for the sake of tired eyes
Ripped down the seams on the ride

And there’s no
Illusion
It’s hollowing the tree to escape
On board the
Delusion

All for thе sake of tired eyеs
Ripped down the seams on the ride In the desert a thirst
Dries the skin like a drum
Though the spirit is low
Arms outstretched to the sun
And there’s no
Illusion
Hollowing the tree to escape
On board the
Delusion
Borrowing the arrows to break
Open
The doors and
Paddling away on the wake
You make for the shoreline and fly

The bridge of the song paints a vivid picture of a desert landscape, where a thirst dries the skin like a drum.

The repetition of the lines "Illusion, hollowing the tree to escape, on board the delusion" adds a sense of urgency and intensity to the song.
