Closer to the Truth and Further from the Sky - Butch Walker[00:00:00]

Written by：Butch Walker[00:00:02]

Ribbons went flying out the window[00:00:12]

As we drove down the interstate[00:00:15]

Sex was something so brand new[00:00:18]

It was hard as hell to wait[00:00:21]

She made faces at the goddamn rednecks[00:00:24]

And said look at you boy you must worship Satan[00:00:27]

Just because I had the same long hair[00:00:30]

As the Jesus in all their paintings[00:00:33]

Every church just made me scared[00:00:36]

Of words like servant and faith and congregation[00:00:38]

In a world with so many answers left[00:00:43]

Why do I need so many explanations[00:00:45]

To get closer to the truth and further from the sky[00:00:48]

Check check[00:01:03]

And the static singes the speakers[00:01:07]

Like a thousand hymns of inspiration[00:01:09]

The road just winds through the canyon[00:01:13]

Like a big black snake headed for salvation[00:01:15]

And I'm getting closer to the truth and further from the sky[00:01:19]

A roadside venue wall papered and menus[00:01:25]

In a town that forgot its own name[00:01:28]

We were hungry for anything that had a pulse[00:01:31]

As we freed ourselves from the rain[00:01:34]

There's a disgruntled metal head playing guitar[00:01:37]

For a pop singer up on the screen[00:01:40]

With his guitar held high and his head held low[00:01:43]

He just wants a chance to be seen[00:01:46]

And the static singes the speakers[00:01:49]

Like a thousand hymns of inspiration[00:01:52]

The road just winds through the canyon[00:01:55]

Like a big black snake headed for salvation[00:01:59]

And I'm getting closer to the truth and further from the sky[00:02:02]

Well he tells me at the bar that he's on his last leg[00:02:44]

That he used to have it all in his hands[00:02:47]

That the girls don't think much of him these days[00:02:50]

It's just hard for him to understand[00:02:53]

'Cause he's a little bit older and a little bit thin[00:02:56]

But he's still got his heart in a sling[00:02:59]

And we paid for the drinks and the bartender drinks[00:03:02]

And it couldn't be more late yeah we're all so late[00:03:05]

'Cause the static singes the speakers[00:03:08]

Like a thousand hymns of inspiration[00:03:11]

The road just winds through the canyon[00:03:15]

Like a big black snake headed for salvation[00:03:17]

And I'm getting closer to the truth and further from the sky[00:03:21]
