about

Track 1 off Basement Confessions

lyrics

Let's crack open a beer
Let's watch the race car chase its tail
'Round the turn they disappear
Wave goodbye to all their friends

'Cause there's children in jail
There's women crying all the time
But I hope you'll stay a while

And you put your armor on
And you built things with your hands
Turn that house into a home
It's a new look for what was there

'Cause we all sleep too much
We miss sunrises all the time
And we never seem to care

Don't you go down the river
Don't you go down today
Tread the water
Until the riptide takes you away

And I saw a shooting star
So I decided to shoot back
Watch it retreat up to God
Where all our wishes stop to collect

And I wondered which one was north
So I could find you all the time
Just by the light you leave behind

And no we can't live forever
Yea we all burn out someday
But I know you'll shine forever
I hope she'll be okay
