lyrics

Calm 'fore the ever-approaching storm's sure slipping over my head
I need a good rest
breezes are blocked out by windows
so I still get heated by the sunset

Do I feel your eyes upon me?
Though i cast aside that dreaming?
For wont of growth for childish reasons,
I could not wait for turning seasons

Wide awake, counting reasons
to slip away, but i fear the nights too long
without a chance to sing another song
clear as day, love will fall like
silver rain, on the heads of those with faith
throw up their hands and sing another song

Lovers led me through shadows, maybe that's what I needed
got good at catching demons
fathers of other peoples' children said I got what I had coming
time and time again

But a true man has bled out from both hands
in one a gun the other soup cans
neither one for sitting idle
i'll take one more night, then off and I'll go

Wide awake, counting reasons
to slip away, but i fear the nights too long
without a chance to sing another song
clear as day, love will fall like
silver rain, on the heads of those with faith
throw up their hands and sing another song
