lyrics

memory
won't last as long as it used to
the things consigned
are few and further between

keep your eyes closed
hope against hope but you know you can't win
can't even begin to explain where you've been
the minutes you're not sure you've spent
these days
it seems like the world is a miserable place
a fucking disgrace we endure just in case
something good happens once in awhile
and we fall so hard for a smile

are you lost
a stranger still in your hometown
well chin up
nobody cares if you're sad
and this climate, i feel like i'm going to scream

thought i was the only one
who had enough sense to get out
but given every chance to run
i never could abate these old doubts

feels like
running your heart on a bottle of gin
trying to get out when you're already in
start laying it thick that you're only joking
but the fact is
those occupied still with tilling the dirt
stay unalert to the people they hurt
and whatever grief that entails
it's just soil under some nails
