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 |
