Telescope - Dawes[00:00:00]
Lyricist:(Verse[00:00:08]
He watched the Bronco leave the driveway[00:00:16]
The day after he turned ten[00:00:23]
His dad said the van's booked up through Sunday[00:00:29]
Ricky never saw him again[00:00:37]
His mother made excuses[00:00:44]
His brother got his wish[00:00:50]
Ricky just stared at the posters in his bedroom[00:00:55]
And started talkin' to his fish[00:01:03]
And whenever he finally could untie these knots[00:01:09]
He didn't get too far[00:01:17]
The stronger the telescope[00:01:24]
The more stars there are[00:01:31]
There were reports within the family[00:01:41]
There were rumors at his school[00:01:47]
Deadbeat dad got stuck in Calgary[00:01:54]
Cleanin' swimmin' pools[00:02:02]
But Ricky had some questions[00:02:08]
He couldn't get it through his head[00:02:15]
How a father so drunk on his own destiny[00:02:20]
Could end up like this instead[00:02:28]
The boy could feel himself get older[00:02:33]
With each shot in the dark[00:02:42]
The stronger the telescope[00:02:49]
The more stars there are[00:02:56]
The stronger the telescope[00:03:02]
The more stars there are[00:03:09]
Now Ricky's in a trailer outside Albany[00:03:45]
He spends all his nights alone[00:03:52]
With a penchant for conspiracy[00:03:59]
And his take on methadone[00:04:06]
But he hasn't been forgotten[00:04:13]
His hometown speculates[00:04:20]
If the world had just got to him too early[00:04:25]
Or if it got to him too late[00:04:33]
And the more time they give each explanation[00:04:38]
The more it comes apart[00:04:47]
The stronger the telescope[00:04:54]
The more stars there are[00:05:01]
The stronger the telescope[00:05:07]
The more stars there are[00:05:15]
The more stars there are[00:05:21]
The more stars there are[00:05:28]
