*Our ode to hoping the future brings great understanding. And trying to not let the past hold the future hostage. Our band logo of the pterodactyl stems off of this song. "In the near future I will decide to take the road less traveled" is the basis for the dinosaur art. -- Somewhat the way we were feeling about life at the time. Minnesota winters can be quite testing. And of course "It's a beautiful day to put flowers on a grave" is satire regarding an over-rated band from Ireland. We re-recorded this track twice because we were unhappy with the drums the first time through. Chad's line "And my lips will smile" is freakin brutal isn't it??
lyrics
Soon I'll have all the time in the world to do what I want In the near future I will decide to take the road less traveled I will feel accomplished in every action in all I do In all that I am My pen will not run out of ink before I write my masterpiece Sitting in the office unable to seize opportunity It's staring me smack dab in the fucking face I need to get out I must get away from all of this shit I might never come back If I don't get out soon I'll never be the same Here's to better days Soon we'll share all the laughs in the world from the funniest situations Your eyes will glow the brightest and my lips will smile The sun will warm our skin as birds above loudly sing And our conversations will fall like waves and it will rise and reclaim It's a beautiful day to put flowers on a grave
