Chris Pureka - Lowlands lyrics

We were crawling through valleys
Yeah we were swimming in mud
You in your rusty chains, me in my lead coat
Weary and tired of always running around
Chasing the taproot of sorrow
Down the rabbithole

We were standing on the ledge
Just trying not to look down
You with your feather in your hand
Me with my parasole i want to feel the air
I want to fly like a bird
I want to get the hell out of here
Somebody catch me, catch me
The endless story of how
We survived the lowlands
And this unlikely road
Unraveling like thread

Slouching in the shadows
Hanging of off barstools
We traded tales of our little wars
I knew I could trust you
So I let you listen singing in my glass
Along with the jukebox

It was the maiden voyage of
That little leaky boat
Me with my stormcloud you with your albatross
It's starting to get cold
Do you remember which way is east
Do you remember which way is
Home? How'd we get here?

The endless story of how
We survived the lowlands
And this unlikely road
Unraveling like thread

Watching the years fly past the carwindows
Making us dizzy like a barrel of moonshine
Of these highways running around
You had a dream we were traveling soldiers
Dragging our burden over the Rockies
The battle of ann arbor
The battle of 6th street

It was all figured out
Our flawless getaway plan
You in your flashy clothes me
In my broke down car
