lyrics

It was my time to come back around and stay
A dream of white surrender, that finally crept in
A sign of the days, another soul to break
She rode past the window frame, unaware of everything
that I was thinking
the Innocence and empty hopes
They’re still the same as years ago
So now I
I’ll down cheap wine
Keep her on my mind for the night
The perfect end?
Like it was back then?
Not this time, not ever again

Then it all changed as her colt kicked my face to the floor
And we made a life in the back of my car
One we couldn’t keep but we stayed free on your sertraline
Hiding the grief and building up fantasies of infamy and bad things
That could fill the simple hole that we now had to hold
All the while
Drinking cheap wine
Then settling down for the night
After making plans
You’d take my hand
and scream out to the woman upstairs
Say the pain
is the perfect stain
to wipe on the bare wood walls we’d wake to in the morning
And every time
swearing that it’s all a lie
Then turning back to cheap wine

Sitting in the doorway like runaways I saw
In the palm of your hand lay a fresh quiet scar
I think it’s time to save you so let’s move it all
I’ll buy you all the memories that I can afford
