lyrics

When the road withers those soles of yours, then sit in the ash of your pastor's place. Let those feet of yours hang above the dandelions. Jump when you know it'll hurt your blood filled feet.

The shock of falling; that bolt though your body. It's a sobering moment of clarity, a vacuum. Now you see the road's much shorter than it was before and maybe your soles can take the heat from the floor.

In the distance we can see the ever fading memory of every place we've been: names, faces, girlfriends. The drunken nights I sit and pray that you like it, my lame excuse for a try. And you'd barely even bat an eyelash. Then you pry the words straight from my lips. Every time you say goodbye the sting really hits.

I've wasted all my money while searching for a bank; where I can invest in a lifestyle I'll thank. The sound of trees falling; the shock in your head. The sound of trees falling; the shock in your head.

Dandelions and ash where the sun first set burning the horizon with boyhood regret regret regret regret regret.
