Alright

(album: Kindly Now - 2016)

I know the West was won this way
But God forgive the heartless way we let
It all burn down
I know, I know you're off on tour
Godspeed my love
I'll not be bored with all
The mess here, now
I'll allow
My heart to get over you now
Let yours take a generous bow
I'll be fine

You'll be alright
Come and see me in the morning
I'll be in the sunrise
Hoping that it's rays don't
Burn a hole in my eyes
You know me, I worry
Could always use some pity
Scared to do a session
If it's in the city
You and I are monsters
We'll not find another
Cannot be together
Lest we eat each other
Don't make me leave

It's been about a month
And I am eating badly
Still don't cry
But I keep meaning to
I hear the crowds adore you so
But I'm still here, I hope you know
Don't talk to them about me

Obviously
My wounds are open to see
But don't take them seriously
I'll be fine

And you're more than alright

Come and meet me in the trenches
I'll be taking cover
You can load the guns, and I'll hide behind the others
Always been a coward
You can ask my friends
I hide inside for hours
Always had intense eyes
I think I am sick but never can be certain
Still call up my mother
Hiding behind curtains
Don't make me go
Don't make me go outside
God knows what out there lies
I'm hoping I don't die
After you
