[Lyric] Holiday (Michael Hedges)

Relax, get away from it all
No solutions seem to last
It's a holiday, wear a smile
Put on a celebration mask

Take off, leave a trail
Let the children wave their sparklers through the sky
It's a holiday
But if the fuses get too short, they won't ask why

If you hover above your enemy
And you're ready to send your aluminum boxes down
It's a holiday
Send the soldiers on a one-way weekend pass

There's a field of blue in my memory
But the stars reform and the stripes begin to fade
For the holiday
When the world turns independence day at last
At last
