lyrics

I'm calling, not leaving
Just trying to get out
and my head's still spinning
when I pull it out of the ground
And you say to me,
"Darling, what are you doing?"
Hell, I guess I don't know
But sunsets are grueling

You said the air it lies
Sometimes you gotta find out what it hides
From your lungs, away from the sun
Somewhere in moments, spinning circles
Untold, to keep moving

And then I tried to take my time
Stuck, hanging around like a willow
But then I lost my mind
Missing the forest for the trees
"Well son, can't you see?
There's gotta be some kind of silver lining"
Yeah we'll head into the shade
as the clouds they pass, and leave us
behind them

You said the air it lies
Sometimes, you gotta find out what it hides
From your lungs, away from the sun
Somewhere in moments, spinning circles
Untold, to move

When the lightning comes leaving jagged cries
Where sun lessons take hold
The willows they pretend to know why
In echoes, untold
