Colfax

(album: Souvenir - 2014)

Watch the feathers fly up from your coat
You're like an angel; I need an angel
I get so weighted down somehow you float
Across the pavement
Across the pavement I've been stuck to so long

And an ugly world suddenly seems almost beautiful now
Every drunken word is poetry and weeds turn to flowers somehow
Up against the wind, you and me, it don't matter where we blow to
Even in this dark, I can see everything I've lost inside you

Now splashing down every street I used to bleed in
With every doubt dripping out, this is where it's all been leading to tonight

Tonight I say it's like the city's ours
You say it's nowhere
I'm fine with nowhere
Smile as you exhale up toward the stars
And blow the dust out, and blow the dust across a seas of concrete

Where an ugly world suddenly seems almost beautiful now
Every drunken word is poetry and weeds turn to flowers somehow
Up against the wind, you and me, it don't matter where we blow to
Even in this dark, I can see everything I've lost inside you

Now splashing down every street I used to bleed in
With every doubt dripping out, this is where it's all been leading to tonight

And there's no place I'd rather be than on this sidewalk
You and me, we could have it all
Soaking in a summer night while you're biting at rain drops

Now splashing down every street I used to bleed in
With every doubt dripping out, this is where it's all been leading to tonight

In an ugly world suddenly seems almost beautiful now
Every drunken word is poetry and weeds turn to flowers somehow
Up against the wind, you and me, it don't matter where we blow to
Even in this dark, I can see everything I've lost inside you
