lyrics

Well I'm sitting by this train track
Waiting for the sun to come back up for you
And only time will tell

Like a pretty maiden's eyes
Sinking little lover's ships
I'd be up against all I'd ever seen

Well I've gone home and my loneliness is traveling through my bones
I wish that I was leaving and it's a shame that I have grown
Since I've been tired of the leaves changing and talking to my ghosts
If I can't be the same now then I guess I'll never know

If we're rolling through desires and a journey with no end
I'll declare myself to mine my thoughts away

And if you rest assure again
Like a diamond on your wire
Then I've been struck by apophenia, selling meaning out

I've come undone by all the ins and outs that I have strung
And your tear drops shake me more than a black hat's loaded gun
As the lawyers teach me how to be their one and only favorite son
If I can't be the same now, then I guess they all have won

But I can't hide and escape from this lovely, truthful tribe
As I mingle with the tenure of your weary, starry sky
You can forget the melodramas with a whisper as you die
If I can't be the same now, then I guess I'll have to lie
