lyrics

I’ve seen the writing on the wall
I’ve heard the wild birds sing their sweet summer songs
I’ve been chained to someone’s heart
And watched the pieces splinter off

I’ve loved more than I have hurt
I’ve pickled the crumbs around your door
I have hung on every word
Though I heard them all before

On a barstool in Suley
I took more than I can tell
Whiskey and beer to chase the MDMA
Trying to drown a dog from hell

Thought I heard that little bird
Was just an echo in the spring
I bowed down to the absurd
After I had crowned it king

Chased the moon across the water
Climbed a rusted staircase to a star
Faced the faceless, bowed in wonder
Kissed the sun, woke up in my car


If I hear that you’ve grown cold
I’ll know to believe that it’s not true
It’s not the light that disappears
It’s the eye that cannot see

In the wheel of an age
The cogs churn outside your door
Chaos stutters as it sings
But always leaves you wanting more


Chased the moon across the water
Climbed a rusted staircase to a star
Faced the faceless, bowed in wonder
Kissed the sun, woke up in my car


If you get home before I do,
Leave a light on
Who knew the angels could be so cruel
Leave a light on
The great elusive absolute don’t know
Leave a light on
If you get home before I do
