about

I wrote this song and was pretty happy with it until I listened back the next day and realized that it's a complete ripoff of the verse from Good Old War's "We've Come A Long Way."

lyrics

I caught the lingering scent of flowers and booze on your breath. Feather tattoo and a piercing that shows through your shirt. Maybe it's trouble, I know. The trouble is letting you go when you're dug so deep I can't seem to make anything work.

Cause I wrote you this song before. I showed you my hand and you showed me the door. Count my blessings and count your curses too. So spin out, settle and stay. It's better if you keep away from my fingers entwined in this tangled web that we weave.

I've got some offerings here. Set beneath this jaded veneer, there's a solid and somber soul stretched out over this state. We've been through things on our own; some likely better left unknown, but it's you that my mind returns to at the end of the day.
