Snail Trails

Wipe my eyes on heart-stained sleeves
And my feet hang, swaying freely
I can taste the soggy sweatshirt strings
And the salt stuck in the back of my throat

So I'll sing a song
I'll sew
So I'll sing, so I'll sing, so I'll sing (How much can we gain?)
A song, I'll sew (How much can we lose?)

I rest my mind
On feathered thoughts to fly me through these weathered storms
I am an over-exposed open window photograph
Taken by someone I'll never know

(Worn through winter, so let it snow)
So I'll sing, so I'll sing, a song, I'll sew
(Worn through winter, so let it snow)
So I'll sing, so I'll sing, a song, I'll sew
(Worn through winter, so let it snow)
So I'll sing, so I'll sing, a song, I'll sew
(Worn through winter, so let it snow)
So I'll sing, so I'll sing, a song, I'll sew

Suck it up, baby boy

Wipe my nose on heart-stained sleeves
Snail trails silvered up my sleeve
Why can kids be so mean?
Why can kids be so mean?
Sit and hide, count to a thousand
Sit and hide, count to a thousand
Sit and hide, count to a thousand
Sit and hide, count to a thousand

(You're a very pretty young lady, it's just, that your face looks struggled)
Yeah, well it's just been a bad day
(Miss, would I be prying if I asked you what was wrong, would I be prying?)
Everything's wrong
(Ahh, not everything. The sun is still shining, it's a beautiful day out. Some things are okay, right?)
Yeah, I guess so
