[Lyric] Gleaming Gift (Occasional Spectators)

[Verse 1]
Spreading black signals with a wave of a hand
Stationed at the bottom of a scorched rotten stand
The future looks bleak as we fall in the dark
Quickly reaching for the lever that'll offer up the start
Life as we know it is a stretch of winding tape
Tangled in the remnants of another failed day
Beauty is diminished as we fight for the scraps
Pursued by the forces with the poise that we lack

[Chorus]
All the while
As we're wasting time
Don't you think that evеry day on Earth is a gleaming gift?
Apathy
And its cold dead eyеs
Searing holes into your psyche that you'll never forget
And you'll know
And you'll know

[Verse 2]
Place your heart on bubble wrap and hope for the best
Negligence is moving in a world that you detest
Your radar screen is rusting as you make a left turn
Into all the bubbling regrets that'll be here when you burn
Life as we know it is a stretch of winding tape
Tangled in the remnants of another failed day
Beauty is diminished as we fight for the scraps
Pursued by the forces with the poise that we lack
[Chorus]
All the while
As we're wasting time
Don't you think that every day on Earth is a gleaming gift?
Apathy
And its cold dead eyes
Searing holes into your psyche that you'll never forget

[Bridge]
You don't have the slightest clue
Of what the world will do to you
Chew you up
And leave you out of thoughts
Shifting the plates pasted beneath your feet

[Chorus]
All the while
As we're wasting time
Don't you think that every day on Earth is a gleaming gift?
Apathy
And its cold dead eyes
Searing holes into your psyche that you'll never forget

[Outro]
Love won't break you
Indecision makes you
Love sends your head round and round
