lyrics

you live a life that wandering eyes cannot see
you're hollowing out a beautiful mouth to speak free
all those years held together by stitches that threaten to tear
yeah where can you go if you know you can go anywhere

take it in slow and breathe in
all our dreaming fills our lungs like smoke
and won't let go

down in the south i know of a town that don't rest
where all of us go when time comes to bury our dead
the sound of our feet on darkening streets fills the air
there's a bed for you made
if there's ever a weight you can't bear

inside me a heart can do nothing but beat
there's a lot that i take too seriously
all these days stretched like the head of a drum
and for once there's nothing that i'm running from
there's a song i'll sing until i get it right
it might take all of the rest of my life
and that's all right
