I'm tired so i lay my head down on a pillow of needles and fire and when i awake its to a rolling drum and a choir singing songs that i learned when i was only a child such as spring up a well in my soul I tried couldn't ever find myself inspired it wasn't too long ago i began to conspire on how to get out of this town well i wasn't too far behind when you said don't even bother to come at all I'll be there well before you arrive I'm going to take everything you want It's all right looks like you've been running from a past life especially when you said Anchorage looks real nice but you didn't want to go all alone

She found a place where she feels forgiven for all of the shit that she's done and in this place it's shit that she's given so she don't feel forgiven for long and through her smile she lies like a child standing afraid of the dark and now she's found a way around it all I was on my way back home you tried to get through i thought you were better off alone to do what you were going to do

sometimes her life is a disaster even more the faster she goes you can't win every battle baby and sometimes its best just to stay away from the war she's got all her guns loaded and in hand she feels like she's been in the enemy's camp she's going to hold her flag to the sky and hold her savior in the back of her mind

you were a friend i was a demon you take medicine to help you sleep through the night i was a waterfall you were the trees so tall looking down on me what did you see i was the wire you were the wildlife devoured by fire discovered in the morning light i was the cutting words you were the innocence words that you've heard before but this time they make perfect sense everyone was here but they left when you came the father's in the kitchen blessing the saints in his name the more that you listen the more you take the blame the more that you look the more that you look the same and he swears to you he's preaching only good news but the more you pay attention the more you realize it just isn't true you hold onto him cause it feels like you got nothing left to loose you've made your decision now you must follow through I was the wire you were the wildlife devoured by fire discovered in the morning light

Crooked Guns 07:47
wouldn't you like to be somewhere you're understood no one's forced to believe in anything but the greater good around here love still abounds there's no god or religion there's no jesus in this town it's only love it's only love it's only love it's only love it's only love it's only love it's only love it's only love you separate everything you make a paper bag a wedding ring it won't hurt when you take the blame cause crooked guns are hard to aim when will you run away with the sun like you did when you came in the clouds with the rain whispering names of the pawns in the games that you love to play what was it that you had to say i must of been too far away been educated in your ignorant faith

She would probably breathe better if she lived more like you she'd be cheating on death with impossible truth she'd open a book up for all who refuse don't rattle her cage she will shake in her boots you swear to god your soul will transcend well it don't help us now you come around fucking over your friends it don't help us now no not at all what we want is a means to an end she gave away her common sense there is no gate so she walks the fence two faced is her self defense now she's leaning hard on all her friends whoa yeah

Idiot Wind 04:24
talk about the weather more these words are meaningless cause they've all been said before ignorance isn't always bliss so we talk about the weather more and how you're going to raise you kids the things you've never done before and the things that you can't forget and the things that you can't forget seem to be the things that you regret and the things that you still regret seem to be the things that make me get high on the town thigh on the town my friends are coming down get high on the town i hope you get where you're headed never have to turn around i hope you reach up and touch the sun and never have to come back down but if you come back down i hope that love will break your fall and if you come back this way again give me a call you know who you are when you're gone you know who you are when you're home you know who you are when you're with somebody you know who you are when you're all alone all alone all alone oh

Eyes 03:16
you looked at me through eyes you spoke to me through mouth you looked at me through eyes but i did not know how to respond without looking through my eyes and speaking through my mouth you looked at me through eyes you spoke to me through mouth you showed me where I'm lacking you told me where I'm slacking now you looked at me through eyes you spoke to me through mouth you showed me where my heart was you asked me where my heart is now you looked at me through eyes you spoke to me through mouth you showed me where my heart was you asked me where my heart is now

i would like to try something new for a while darling its not a choice you have he said holding a condescending smile so they wrote their names in wet cement to tell their youth to not forget the things that their grandparents built high on love and low on guilt
