lyrics

Well, I walked down the hill to the field where the grass grew tall/
I looked with my eyes out into the night sky with wonder as it filled with stars/
I didn’t know what to think, I didn’t know what to say/
Cause words they can fail and thoughts can be frail and shatter like brittle porcelain/

It’s a shame – oh, the lengths we go to to lie to ourselves/

I used to play nylon strings but lately steel just feels right to me
Cause if I’m already suffering for what I believe, then my fingers might as well bleed/
You say your mean because the world is shitty, you must prepare people to get through/
But the fact is the world’s only shitty because it’s filled with people like you/

Down the street from where I’m living, there’s a dog that’s been left by the street/
And every day when I walk to work, he tucks his tail between his legs and retreats/
And every day I say I’m gonna do it, I’ll save my dog and I’ll save my soul/
Yeah, every day I say I’m gonna do it, and every day I don’t
