Wicker Cathedrals

Sifting through
the monumental layers of shit
presented to me
on a platter every day
Can't believe
the hollow, empty things that we buy
Wicker Cathedrals
are catching fire..
So let's pretend
the cabin's losing pressure
(because it is)
we're going down.. (Buddy Wakefield)
So count to 10,
breathe in slowly and hold..
(now breathe out)
I wanna spread love
I wanna find beauty
I wanna find truth
I wanna be happy
I want to show up for the people that love me..
I promise from here on out, I'll try..

Darby on Derby Day
03:10

She got that wide-brimmed floppy hat..
and she's sippin' mint juleps
She's never been to Kentucky, but
she'll never turn down the chance to
Turn a blind eye away from the feeling
that she's running out...she's running out of time
(She's running out of time!)
She bet her tips from yesterday
on the number 5 pony...(ooo)
She's always dreaming 'bout India
but she's never left the county..
Darby on Derby Day..
distracting from depression,
but she's running out..she's running out of time!
(She's running out of time!)
Darby on Derby Day,
a darling of descension..
and she's running out, running out of time..
(She's running out of time!)
She's running out of time...ooo
I made her a garland of roses,
so she made me burgoo..
and we're running out, running out of time!

Before (Back in Time)

Let's go back in time,
right before either one of us
made any mistakes..
You got no idea
Just how good you looked,
with that wonder in your eye..
(woah) with that wonder any our eye..
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry I'm not quite
your idea of a good guy..
Let's go back in time,
right before either one of us
said the things that we said..
You got no idea
just how good you looked,
with that sparkle in your eye..
(woah) with that sparkle in your eye..
You're just an image in my mind..
It's just an image in my mind..woah...
Let's go back in time
to the night I walked you home
with my arm across your shoulder..
You got no idea
just how good it felt
to have your body next to mine..
Let's go back in time
to the idea we both had
for what this could become..
You got no idea
just how good it felt
to have hope for the first time...
(woah) hope for the first time..
in such a long time..
It's just an image in my mind..
You're just an image in my mind...woah..

Bows & Arrows
04:20
|
|||
|
Hurling like an artist through the dark
and aiming for concentric circles..
Not just a target, but a place to rest our heads
All my friends meet me at the bar
they know just how I feel
I think they know just how I feel, so broken
Waiting for something to give in
with our eyes all glistening
We stare up at the moon and start to fall
Oh, we do this over and over again
Waiting for something to kick in
Whoa, We are the bows & arrows
Whoa, We are the bows & arrows
Fading like a fire in the night
When all we need is a little stoking
Not just a fire, but a laugh that will wake the dead
All my friends speak when spoken to
Well we're talking way passed two
I think they know just how I feel, so swollen
Waiting for something to give in
Well we're changing with the wind
The cold, it starts to creep as we bide our time
Oh, We do this over and over again
Oh, Waiting for something to kick in
Whoa, We are the bows & arrows
Whoa, We are the bows & arrows
Twiddling my thumbs, just like grandpa always did
I try to keep my eye on the prize, but I'm not that kind of kid
Twiddling my thumbs, just like grandpa always did
Well I try to maintain focus, focus, focus, focus, focus, focus..

Invest in Real Estate
03:57
|
|||
|
Sacrifice the now, for the later
Try to find the middle ground, between what I want
and what I need
Put aside the short term, and invest in the future
Well a friend that helps you reel it in, is a friend indeed
A friend that helps you reel it in, is a friend indeed..
A friend who helps you reel it in..
Staring off in space, while sit-in in the fire
Lookin' for a place that gives me a sense of calm
Balancing contentment with desire
and a friend who helps you reel it in is a friend indeed
Well a friend who helps you reel it in is a friend indeed
A friend who helps you reel it in...
Well Everyone I talk to says to invest in real estate
Get a 401k, and try to own a home
Well if home is where you rest your head
but you never get rest
You might wanna invest in something of your own..
Hurry up and wait
You're kneeling at an alter
Stayin up too late so your mind will settle down, down, down
Livin' day to day, you fumble and you falter
But a friend who helps you reel it in is a friend indeed
No a friend who helps you reel it in is a friend indeed
Well a friend who helps you reel it in is a friend indeed
oh-whoa....
