lyrics

In the night I had a dream
After all was lost a scream
Confusion in a new bed
Help me overcome and come out clean
Seattle’s too sanitized
From the mountaintop to the waterside
Raise my voice I’m ready to travel
A million miles (with you)
I don’t believe that you don’t care
About the people around you
Lay it down the weight you bear
And all the demons that hound you

Your memory is like a dream
Beyond my wildest hope
The days have now come to an end
A normal life I cannot cope
We left behind us a long trail
Of thoughts and dreams and rising seas
And vague desires for the future
Are not plans but prophecies
Now it’s ending the bliss of summer
That stretched about nine months long
Lit the fire, moved my fingers
Renewed my strength to sing this song

How many cars have driven over
This little patch of concrete land
Many times I was tricked
By a world that tied my hand
I saw you in a guitar chop
A broken verse, a little drums
A punchy bass to fill your cup
The false silence of speaker hums
Broken open like last year
When summer turned to fall
What I carry going forward
Fits in my hands oh so small
