about

Feat. Nick Diener from The Swellers

lyrics

Twisted and worn out
Like a rusty nail
I’m trying not to fall
Winter of 2010
I remember every weeknight at the bar
The taste of blood between our teeth

We said we’d be leaving all behind
We say that every year

No, I won’t let you drag me down
I’ll walk through the storm
And keep my feet anchored to the ground
A whiskey coloured stain on my new shirt
The taste of the floor is way more than what I can afford

One fast move or I’m gone

I won’t spend my summer nights
Standing in the yard under the stars
I’ll retrace my steps and look for what I’ve lost
Along those sunbeaten roads
You burned that bridge
So don’t bother looking back
I’m already gone

There’s no solid ground for old drunks and dreamers
Just have to deal with the ghosts
There’s no solid ground for old drunks and dreamers
It’s hard to stop reeling

How did I get here
Gasping for air under a street lamp?
You must have thought I never even tried
Now all I have is this ringing in my ears
The deafening sound of the same damn song
It was all I could hear
