Liminality from Paper Babies by Superstructure

There's a space I can feel between Heaven and here
Between you and me and the ghosts that we fear
I believe you're still near

Somewhere along the I-94
There's an exit that leads to a memory store
I can't find anymore

We're just waiting for the next stock market crash
The light from the sun turned our castles to ash
Make a wish, my eyelash

And on the next day when the shit hits the fan
I'll bottle it up and I'll make a new plan
I turned back, you just ran

Do you still laugh at the crack in your knee?
Were you let down by Kingdom Hearts three?
Can you spell bourgeoisie?

I've changed everything that I'm able to change
But nothing is working, I feel so strange
Everyone still estranged

And try as I might, I can't stop seeing red
I hear all the rumors of wars up ahead
Our heroes, they're all dead

A million souls sleep on the streets tonight
While two million houses turn into blight
Do you see it's not right?

Well Jesus, he promised forgiveness from debt
But the Earth's heating up, we're all starting to sweat
I guess we're not there yet

Not there yet
Not there yet
Not there yet
Not there yet

And if all of the comrades we've lost could see us
They'd weep for the failures and return to dust
The bodies pile up while the suits all shake hands
And still we don't see they don't hear our demands
These marches they kindly allow us to hold
Are nothing compared with their hordes of gold
But if the world burns, may we not strike the match
May we rise from the ash and demand a rematch

These are the thoughts I wish I could tell you
But honestly sometimes I can't tell what's true
For all of the times that I've seen how it ends
I can't shake this feeling like I've got no friends
We always would talk about Judgment Day
We'd fight it together, but you've gone away
I guess I'll keep sinking in my regret
Cuz all that I know is we're not there yet

We're not there yet
We're not there yet
We're not there yet
