Irma (We All Evolve)

from The Way Up by Benjamin Jay Thomas

/

lyrics

We all evolve We all evolve
I know it isn't right
to think that I'd rather die
Than to pack up and leave town
And evacuate this house
I can't afford to stay
When the shutters break away
But I can't afford to leave
This is all I know that's me

Go now
You have more in life to give
These old paradigms and traffic lights
Were fine when we were kids
But all the magic in the universe
Resides beneath your skin
And if you stay here

This is where your story ends
What about the photographs
And the paintings on the wall What about the empty cross
Given to me when was small

I don't want to leave my friends
I don't want to leave my job
What if all my blessings vanish
When I pull out of this town

Go now
You have more in life to give
These old paradigms and traffic lights
Were fine when we were kids
But all the magic in the universe resides beneath your skin

And if you stay here
This is where your story ends
We all evolve We all evolve
