Lyrics
On the steel and in the stones
brushing fingers ‘gainst your wrist
Swinging legs and thick shadows
your choreographies condense
And your forehead’s numbing
from the fracture of a thought
as the transatlantic
bridges cool and fall apart
You don’t know how this all came to be
but it feels so far from ordinary
‘Cause you are not immune
to an apathetic June
And while it’s not opportune
it’s an apathetic June
‘Cause you are not immune
to this apathetic June
So few of us are immune
to an apathetic June
Pencils snap and ivories
cut my fingers as they perch
The paper’s blank, a lack of ink
won’t let a melody emerge
The sun is hidden
while our faces lose their glow
And the notes will fade in
approaching monochrome
And how did all of this even come to be?
‘cause it feels so far from ordinary
But I am not immune
to an apathetic June
Few of us are immune
to an apathetic June
Yeah we are not immune
to this apathetic June
So we will wait and see
if July brings something new
