lyrics

whispered like the sound of rivers underground
and cars in junkyards playing neil young through their busted stereos
and do you know that busted man, the toughest man, he had a plan
he pulled my hair with breaths that ripple like cherries in a root beer float

and they
they all agree
with those who said it's all my fault
and i
and i can see
that i was wrong i was wrong all along

and in the church next to where my grandma's buried by the cherry tree
and where my mother married him and kissed him soft and sweet
i sat down by myself late one night i had the key somehow
i looked at statues and the windows and tried to hold on to now

and you
could you trust me?
with a splinter of your smile i found it in the dark
and i
i am not free
from anything that i could sing or the spark between our hearts

whispered like the sound of rivers underground
or muscles grating in the legs of elephants as they play by the lake
i couldn't find a touch of hope i wouldn't look when i was told
nope i'm fine just waiting, i'm fine just waiting
