Damien Jurado - Tom lyrics
[Damien Jurado - Tom lyrics]
Your season fixated on sleeping the laziness
Traveling the fairgrounds and deciding whose
Failed you at best
High as your voice still sung
In the circus tents
Touching your tongue on the ceilings of song
How many skies fell on your horizon line?
Would you go nowhere if you had
A nowhere to go nowhere to
Never afraid of challenging the scene
If it punched out my lights then
I would punch out it's sun
Can you not see that your audience is leaving
They were crushed in the foyers
Unable to find seating
The ushers in protest for the
Tears they planned on keeping
Will soon turn to rivers
Not worthy of drinking
The light now embarrassed and
Afraid of the dark
Is seen covering it's evening
With garments of stars
The windmills stand turning to
A hurricanes push
The keyholes and stanzas singing
Onward we must
Traveling the fairgrounds and deciding whose
Failed you at best
High as your voice still sung
In the circus tents
Touching your tongue on the ceilings of song
How many skies fell on your horizon line?
Would you go nowhere if you had
A nowhere to go nowhere to
Never afraid of challenging the scene
If it punched out my lights then
I would punch out it's sun
Can you not see that your audience is leaving
They were crushed in the foyers
Unable to find seating
The ushers in protest for the
Tears they planned on keeping
Will soon turn to rivers
Not worthy of drinking
The light now embarrassed and
Afraid of the dark
Is seen covering it's evening
With garments of stars
The windmills stand turning to
A hurricanes push
The keyholes and stanzas singing
Onward we must
