lyrics

Wet Spot

You remind me of my favorite authors
Talented but never recognized
That our lives are as bad as they seem
We’re filled with potential
The narration comes in weak, boring, and subtle
This one has the ingredients to go down in history
Because of a heart attack
Failed liver
Or Suicide
Will do just fine.

My feet are worn and the binding that held us all together is now tried cracked and torn
The blood used to pump, but now it’s clotting well
These empty limbs will soon be dead weight
An anvil that holds me to this thriving town
Where everyone has a point to make
Give me the mountains and a lake

Picture what could come
An image, a tidal wave of regret
Your eyes are swollen and red from words I have said
A half mile down the road
I’ll picture what to write about when I get home
A half mile down the road
If ignorance is bliss then I’m glad to be alone

You remind me of my favorite authors
Talented but never recognized
And our lives are as bad as they seem
We’re filled with potential
We are our own worst critics in everyone’s eyes
Our greatest works will be published
Long posthumously and I’m okay with that.

We made it
We found our solid ground
No axe to fall, no mistakes to try to knock us down
We made it
This time I am sincere
There’s no place I’d rather be
Then anywhere but here.
