Superfund Beaches

Sand in your white shoes
Walking by the superfund beaches
sometimes I get a feeling, nothing's gonna save me now
I've tried it all except for Jesus
But i could never believe it
anyhow
Wasn't it the second time not the first
That you really felt it
up and down
from your big toe to the teeth in your mouth
So if this it I should just be myself
Be myself

Driveway fittin up the brand new pickup
at night I black out, everybody drink up
Things got complicated
I don't wanna be the one to say
But I know I'll be the one to say it in the end
Oh sugar, lets go down
Don't you wanna go down
Oh Sugar let's go down
Down to the river to pray
Treat me like a friend till my check gets spent
Treat me like a boy in a hospital bed
I don't stand a chance if your humming my songs in your head
Let's read the books they banned
Eat the food we canned before we fled
Don't look back helpless
Do you ever look back on this?
Coast guard wraps you in the shiny blanket
Then you cracked a smile because you couldn't fake it
Oh sugar lets go down
Go down don't you wanna go down
Oh Sugar lets go down to the river
Oh brother lets go down
Go down don't you wanna go down
Oh sister lets go down to the river
Oh mother lets go down please
don't you wanna go down
Oh father lets go down to the river

Comfort

If only we could say goodbye enough
When we finally leave
if only I had better words for you
But that is all I can say when you ask me
I say
I want time to stop
Live out your life
Ticking clocks
and you know the words, I'm saying
You just won't hear it
Not the world, it's myself i fear
I want time to stop
Live out your life
Ticking clocks
and you know the words, I'm saying
You just won't hear it
Not the world, it's myself i fear
Decades and months and years are in my rear view
maybe just one more year or 22
Cause Iknow you
You want time to stop
live your life
ticking clocks
do i know the words
tell me everything's alright
do you know the words
to comfort

Sandalwood
01:54
|

Oh the fruit that we taste is sweet
but what we say is bitter as the seeds inside
and the roots of our tress
are tangled up with weeds
Sandalwood, sage, and ginger
Cant rid us of what lingers here like the ghosts
I know them by name
I'll see them again on my own next winter

Hoping the cascade will end
as it falls in my head
falls in my lap and my feet
it was discrete but i did it again
I cant pretend
cant comprehend what it was when you stuck out your tongue
and you looked in my eyes
and You looked in my soul and you saw
everything I wanted you to find
Oh now the winter draws near did I sleep through the year in the floodlights?
Ask me to walk a straight line oh im sober im fine im just up at night
reliving summers in my mind
I'm fine
Darn up the socks in the dresser I forgot about
Stitch by stitch i fix it up slowly
and as soon as that splinter got stuck
I couldn't think
I was just pure luck

If I came home looking how i do
most days
all bloodshot eyes and trembling hands
what would you say
If I caught the metro north upstate
i could hitch from Springfield
and be there by midnight
don't ask me if theres more i wanna say
haven't i cried enough
for both of us
i want to start all over every year around this time
I want a brand to chance to squander a new body and new mind
new pipes to sing your favorite song
camp on the beach after we follow the tracks
I left my heart in hood river
why cant i just write pretty songs and not rip out my own heart every time
i float down the street to the corner store
as if in a dream
life don't seem quite as real as before
or is it just me
I'm packing up my love to go
with napkins and plastic forks
don't do the right thing like the hero in the shows you watch
and i'm sitting on your mothers fire escape smoking cigars
now i strain my ribs and gasp for air, coughing up my life under the stars

fight all night
till the street gets noisy and the morning breaks
wash each other off in the shower in the backyard
don't you miss a spot
woahhhh
holding off tears like the alamo
it broke me of course it did to see you go

In the back of the crowd
I left when the place died down
and we held hands out the window of the car
in the front of my
all the days i could be that blind
like missing a spot when you clean up
maybe it's all in my head and i'm just a hypochondriac
but i got so sick on hope that i don't know it ill make it back
The white whale's got no appetite but i still fall into its belly somehow
thats always how ive seen it go down
the wax from my wings melts but ive never felt heat like this
before and i like it
its only the high before the fall
I sit in the parking lot at dusk for you until my teeth fall out

Snowfall puts me to sleep
and its true I know
Do you ever dream of lights,
calling you home like bell
they say your uncle misses you
they say it'll be easier to watch your sister grow up
don't you wanna
don't you wanna be around?
