Firethorn

lyrics

Staring out the window it is autumn I am still alone
The firethorn’s in shadow, oh, the endless bright days I can’t cope

I just saw a friend he stayed for days and then he took a train
He always cheers me up and I am grateful for him and our time

People come they always go right back to lives that are all their own
And then we’re left to wonder just how often they think about

All we ever have’s ourselves and sometimes I guess that’s enough
But then we get so tired and we just want to leave our own heads


Six years since we first met
In sea light on the hillside
On the western coastline
In the college town there
All those cold night we were drunk and high
And I’m still hungover


Now we live in the afterglow
Of the time we shared there, of the selves we shed there
Now you say that you feel so lost
Whatever it is, I hope you find it
I dream of cities I’ll never see
And long for a life that could fulfil me


Oh, my life might never change
I do a lot of nothing

I guess I’ll write another song
Try to write some poetry

If I could just stop thinking of
B-b-b-being dead
