fiona dear - ain't it been a while
been going around town - heard you're skipping out soon
if you're leaving tomorrow was this only passing through for you
fiona dear - ain't it been a while
won't slow the decay that comes on quickly with age
and there's only time today to find your friends and
feel okay
but if you're leaving tomorrow then there's nothing more to do with you

do they know what you did
come clean in who you've been
such a feeling i remember
field the crowd for questions quick
slanders pile thick
through the darkness you transform
stacked in the letters still stuck in an ink pen
ripen the story, divide the brigade
caught in your dealings you took to the alley
sold all her things just to keep her in place
cursing this city you fled to the country
found fellow martyrs on the banks of Adelaide
caught in the peace that you kept up your whole life
you couldn't hold out for the sun
bumbling speaker , false facade
humble brother, tired god
crossing statelines
for her bedside
crossing statelines
just to die

where's the backbone in you tonight
clipping magazine headlines
they're gonna save you on the company dime
you take the money and i'll do the time
you've got fallback and a pedigree
you cut the ties to feign maturity
the world's built on shit legality
it's gonna put you in the ground, yeah
never meant to weigh the ship down
it's clear we're sinking if i stick around
the fuzz is howling, will you ditch or drown
the wolves are closing in to feast, yeah
twisted path, covered tracks and crimes
they've been delayed but they're still close behind
where's the backbone in you tonight
are you a martyr or debris, yeah
every time my mouth precedes mind
for this sweet demise with caroline
my baby's free - know she'll stay with me
and i'll get clean or cut you out to save some face, yeah

all will pass between your fingers
come and go like common colds
you've got big ambitions baby
mine have never been so bold
tossed around a sea unsettled
washed upon your shores too soon
where you tamed the stars with purpose
and took a bite out of the moon
thought i'd gather much more wisdom
by the time i needed it
i just sat and counted postcards
stained with what you don't feel anymore
shed her blood on concrete while i
drank liquor laced with your perfume
twist around the turnpike clutching
words they spilled to clear the room
can i just not feel for you without
giving up on things i need
space on life and watch your friends
contort themselves to strangers

lost before - lost again
highway's vast and infinite
darker now and bleeding
so fine, well you don't see me
oh the world is fleeting
starting over ain't appealing
white knuckling valley grass
simulated life will pass
you've gone your way
i've gone mine
i feel fine

Maintaining Interest
05:06

|
the legend passes - they're shaking your hands
some other man you've never known
these private chambers - these private people
swapping your sorrow like a commodity
such a lonely commodity
what good is it to live for other people
live your life on a loan
'cause you pay it alone

On High

i wanna be honest but still on my guard
i wanna build you a castle for when they
start to twist your arm
conversations in circles with no substance to blame
you say you're feeling so messed up and you
know i feel the same
steam'll cover the whole street and it makes the night soft
you can stay for a while and figure out
i'm just a rip-off
but i just wanted to harness the pain that you deal
i wanna be deliberate in the way i make you feel
in the end
will you feel this again
underneath it all

I Was Crushed by Inertia
03:32
|

|
what's the pretense to get you speaking
sundown season - the days are slowly leaking
and i've been loved all my life
so why am i rarely satisfied
ready to retire in the predawn
hard just to ease in
always repeating
only here reaching
for someone to breathe in
hard just to ease in
and always defeated
i'll always be reaching
for some other feeling
