lyrics

The day that he dropped out of school his father said he’d be a fool
To hang around this little town too long
But what his father didn’t know was Sara was starting to show
And they didn’t give a damn if it was wrong

Folks ‘round here they like to talk
They love to think the road they walk’s the only way
That’s what they say

For a while there it was chaos there were hungry nights and tradeoffs
Trying to dig their way out of that hole
At night he’d sit out on the couch wondering if he was cut out to play this role
With no control

The man is a liar who says that he sees anything beyond this day
The bullet in the fire is laughing at the choices and the plans we made
It will give and it will take, break your heart
But it cannot touch your mind and how it shines
And the rest just fades over time

Now his eyes are hard as stone, there’s not much left but skin and bone
So far from how he’d pictured growing old
All the ones that he’d proved right or wrong and all the times that he’d been strong
And somehow he outlived them all

When i asked him for the reason why he longs for the next season
Why he’s holding on
He told me, son

The man is a liar who says that he sees anything beyond this day
The bullet in the fire is laughing at the choices and the plans we made
It will give and it will take, break your heart
But it cannot touch your mind and how it shines
And the rest just fades over time

The man is a liar who says that he sees anything beyond this day
The bullet in the fire is laughing at the choices and the plans we made
It will give and it will take, break your heart
But it cannot touch your mind and how it shines
And the rest just fades over time
