"Good morning," says 5:06 This is your gentle reminder to arise Be forewarned that the sun is waking On the brink of dawn or disaster We all have failures to atone for And this is your gentle reminder that No matter how many times you climb Your feet will never stand upon holy ground "Good afternoon" says 1:15 This is your gentle reminder to venture forth But this is a place that you have no claim to So be off like the nosy brat you have become We all come here to escape someone And this is your gentle reminder that The someone who pursues is quick Running on cylinders that you don't yet possess "Goodnight" says 11:49 And this is your gentle reminder to evanesce This is a place that preys upon your weakness So close your eyes and dissolve into dreamless sleep We all survive our own mortality And this is your gentle reminder that To bring favor upon remaining days You must release the grasp on the ones before

Gentle Reminder
"Good morning," says 5:06 This is your gentle reminder to arise Be forewarned that the sun is waking On the brink of dawn or disaster We all have failures to atone for And this is your gentle reminder that No matter how many times you climb Your feet will never stand upon holy ground "Good afternoon" says 1:15 This is your gentle reminder to venture forth But this is a place that you have no claim to So be off like the nosy brat you have become We all come here to escape someone And this is your gentle reminder that The someone who pursues is quick Running on cylinders that you don't yet possess "Goodnight" says 11:49 And this is your gentle reminder to evanesce This is a place that preys upon your weakness So close your eyes and dissolve into dreamless sleep We all survive our own mortality And this is your gentle reminder that To bring favor upon remaining days You must release the grasp on the ones before
