๐ Lyrics
Close the door on a short night
Lift the lid on the daylight
6: 09 West Tennessee time
And I buy all my days
At the same place where the girl sells her nights to a God of Ocean Tides
All night long writing poems to California
Melodies of failure
And the people I have thrown away
Meanwhile somewhere west of Carolina
In a congregation of strangers
We are digging holes to China
And we pray to our reflections
In the water when it rises
I said headlights pinned the highway down
Jesus spins the world around
And I spend all my tomorrows coming down
Goodbye all my days
I know I said I never loved you but I might just try again tonight
Truck stops and river Gods
Gas stations of the cross
Following a ghost, following a ghost
I pray the water wash away the memories and the cost
And carry me south to the sea
Along with your memories of me
We are born in the water and I will return to thee
Colored lights and birthday cakes
Candle wax on paper plates
Breathe the water
Hush a bye, hush a bye
You can see through water all the way up to the sky
Gods of water, Gods of rain, cover up the sun again
We are crossing at the Mississippi line
And I tried all my days
To love you just the way you hoped I might
But I'm leaving here tonight
I can't remember yesterday, I tried
If I said I could, I lied
Lift the lid on the daylight
6: 09 West Tennessee time
And I buy all my days
At the same place where the girl sells her nights to a God of Ocean Tides
All night long writing poems to California
Melodies of failure
And the people I have thrown away
Meanwhile somewhere west of Carolina
In a congregation of strangers
We are digging holes to China
And we pray to our reflections
In the water when it rises
I said headlights pinned the highway down
Jesus spins the world around
And I spend all my tomorrows coming down
Goodbye all my days
I know I said I never loved you but I might just try again tonight
Truck stops and river Gods
Gas stations of the cross
Following a ghost, following a ghost
I pray the water wash away the memories and the cost
And carry me south to the sea
Along with your memories of me
We are born in the water and I will return to thee
Colored lights and birthday cakes
Candle wax on paper plates
Breathe the water
Hush a bye, hush a bye
You can see through water all the way up to the sky
Gods of water, Gods of rain, cover up the sun again
We are crossing at the Mississippi line
And I tried all my days
To love you just the way you hoped I might
But I'm leaving here tonight
I can't remember yesterday, I tried
If I said I could, I lied
