Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Draw the line, draw it again
I only lie to my closest friends
Straight as an arrow, but that depends
You hit the road and the, the road bends
I have no quarrels, no enemies
I know my failure is my expertise
The righteous gamin of '82
You came to me but I was born to you
[Verse 2]
Where would you wander, what would it mean
There might be saviors but no guarantees
When we needed something kind of like love
We fell together, I guess, just because
Oh my friend Sorrow, you are relieved
I no longer need your company
And what's stuck in my throat is a mystery
And what it is is a heartbreaking, soul shaking
Overwhelming undertaking
Hit me once again
[Verse 3]
I knew your mother, she was my friend
It's only love to her I do extend
When I fell under, sometimes nightly
She was the branch to which I held on tightly
Tried my stable of remedies
I know it’s harder to see the light when you're on your knees
Had a map, borrowed a car
North Colorado via Arkansas
[Verse 4]
Island to island, breaking my silence
I'm hemmed in water
Quelling the violence behind my eyelids
I close and open
Something inside you is bending like I do
It’s like that feckless song
[Verse 5]
Down the road if you were to find
Some box of clues that I left behind
I just thought I'd save you some time
Straighten it out here and make it rhyme
It’s not in my nature to pretend
That any one road leads to any one end
And maybe victory's too heavy for arms like these
And freedom's too loaded when you speak of destinies
You just try to see the thing for what it is
And what it is is a heartbreaking, soul shaking
Overwhelming exhalation
Hit me once again
Hit me once again
