Greenwood

(album: Collapser - 2009)

The boards
They bounce up and down in an abandoned house
Amps exploding
And our ears bleed red but we yell out every note

In the kitchen you tell me 'bout the evils of the world
Swallow hard on every truth that's been fermenting in your throat

Know that's it's my luck I'm leaving
I met you once when I was dreaming
I'm waiting for a spark to reignite
Lie to me, I love believing
Take the mundane, look for meaning in everything
You're everything tonight

On the lawn outside Gabe shoots bottle rockets through the night
Lighting up the summer sky

Catch fire
I'm burning up with you
Something in the air makes me wonder
Why the hell I'd care about tomorrow
When it's all right here the wine the hope and you

So I hit the road
Wheeled the van off of the grass and drove
Miles slipped in between of you and me
It's what I always do
And in the morning all that fills me is regret
I know I've traded winning hands for losing bets
The moment's gone
