We drove the car to the top of the parking ramp on the 4th of July.
We sat out on the hood with a couple of
Warm beers and watched the fireworks explode in the sky.
And there was an exodus of birds from the trees,
But they didn't know, we were only pretending.
And the people all looked up,
And the birds flew around like the whole world was ending.
And I don't think war is noble,
And I don't like to think that love is like war,
And I gotta big hot cherry bomb,
And I want to throw it through the mail slit of your front door.
Don't leave me here.
I've got your back now,
You'd better have mine.
Cuz you say the coast is clear,
But you say that all the time.
So many sheep I quit counting.
Sleepless and embarrassed about the way that I feel,
Trying to make hills out of mountains,
Building base camp at the bottom of a really big deal.
And did I tell you how I stopped eating when you stopped calling me?
And I was cramped up shitting rivers for weeks,
And pretending that I was finally free.
Don't leave me here
Now that your back,
You'd better stay this time.
Cuz you say the coast is clear,
But you say that all the time.
We drove the car to the top of the parking ramp,
On the 4th of July and I planted my dusty boots on
The bumper and sat on the hood, and looked up at the sky.
