My father's ghost behind us and
My brother's further south
We took the early evening bus
Back to my mother's house
Oh honey you can take my bed
I'll stay here on the couch
These winter leaves willl blanket all our doubts

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Wah

I know your heart is heavy
With the weight of all of this
Take a hit here from my flask, baby
We'll drown out every bit
It used to be so easy
Oh we know this much is true
Now this fucking mess we're in
What could I do?

The glimmering neon lights
On glistening streets that
Gather in dark
The slowing, stuttered stillness
Of my ever drifting heart
Oh darling if you'd only say
I promised that I'd stop
You're burning down each bridge
Each bridge I wish to cross
If we try

Try, Try (try, try, try)
Your bruised and blackened eyes
Will come alive
And light again

So you push
And you shove
And it all goes unseen
You're fighting off a landslide
Slowly rushing
To the sea
And you're tied
To a brick
With cement stuck in your shoes
My floundered fishing boat has sank
But I'm reaching for the shore
He knew

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Wah

If you'd only give me time
Maybe ease my spinning head
'Cause there's things
We're tryna deal with
Probably better left unsaid
Oh just come sit here
By me baby
Let the smoke clear all around
On the trail we left behind us
Buried secrets in the ground
They're singing

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh

Love is the soil unsettled
By these stories as you leave
It's the nagging sense of infancy
Pulling at your sleeve
And it's the ghostly voice blowing through the window
Breathless in the blue
Oh love is the only certainty
And it's here in front of you

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Wah
