Fences - Hunting Season lyrics

When I was really young
I lived in this tiny town called Wilkeson
In Washington state it is at
The base of a giant
Snowy mountain that you could
See from the windows of the school bus
And your classroom and even your bedroom
Window and people would always say it
Was going to erupt any day
So once a month we'd have to get
Under our desks in preparation and
The school bus used to drive by this old
Metal boat that was sort of abandoned
In a cow pasture i always used to
Daydream that when the mountain exploded
That I would get in
The boat and I'd be safe from the lava and
I could go to my mother's work and
Pick her up and we would ride somewhere i
Was never sure where we would go
But anywhere that was safe

He took one to the lake and
He fell like a pine
The doe no longer wide-eyed and
A love not mine
We both have made mistakes in
This war that's our life
The doe no longer wide-eyed, my dear, my wife

I'm not like you
Would have let him walk away
You took your aid and my
Eyes became two caves, caves

He almost got away
Left to bleed in our minds
That don't no longer wide-eyed in
A blood like wine
We both have tried to fake all
The joy in our lives
The doe no longer wide-eyed, my dear, my wife

I'm not like you
Would have let him walk away
You took your aid and my
Eyes became two caves i'm not like you
Would have let him walk away
You took your aid and my
Eyes became to caves, caves

Uuuuuuu uuuuu uuuuu uuuuu
