Kindred

(album: High Hopes - 2018)

Set fire fire to my lungs in the morning
My mind is a wave
Climb high when the tide starts coming
But I can't get away
I know I know I know
That I'm my only enemy

K9's in the cat coop honey
It's a fine line everyday
Cast high in the distance for me
Cause I can't stand the pain

I know I know I know
That there must be a remedy
She said

We are kindred
Tugging on the tether
Like we'll live forever
But one day we'll have to leave

So I give thanks
For each day of solid ground beneath our feet
There are no promises of tomorrow for you and me

Cloud 9 in the midst of the morning
My mind mind is maze
Goldmine on my doorstep for me
But I can't stand the rain
Without you
I know, I know
I'd lose my way eventually

Cut down on the cigarettes honey
That's one foot in the grave
This life is a turbulent journey
Take charge of the plane
I know I know I know
Why do you have such faith in me?
She said

We are kindred
Tugging on the tether
Like we'll live forever
But one day we'll have to leave

So I give thanks
For each day of solid ground beneath our feet
There are no promises of tomorrow for you and me
