Country Sky Glow - Kevin Devine[00:00:00]
Written by:Kevin Devine/Chris Bracco/Mike Skinner[00:00:01]
You carry the beach in your way too short hair[00:00:09]
That you shaved off last week[00:00:14]
'Cause you freaked and got scared[00:00:16]
That when it's longer you remind me of her[00:00:19]
So you offered it up[00:00:24]
With what passed for authority[00:00:27]
A strict sort of challenge[00:00:30]
That you directed straight at me[00:00:32]
You said forget her[00:00:34]
I don't care what you two were[00:00:36]
So it's a trick on your ego[00:00:42]
A two step off tempo[00:00:45]
A solid gold bracelet[00:00:48]
Under lights in a window[00:00:50]
In some shopping mall[00:00:52]
Where I never go[00:00:56]
You play coy and count tiles[00:01:08]
Drag your toes through the water[00:01:10]
Raise your eyes bite your lip[00:01:13]
And my mind's in the gutter[00:01:16]
You move at me and take my face in your hands[00:01:18]
I feel light bulbs explode[00:01:26]
And a fire crack thunder sends[00:01:29]
The slow seismic shift[00:01:32]
The sprawling cloud cover[00:01:34]
But when we're finished[00:01:36]
I feel awful again[00:01:38]
So it's the same sorry story[00:01:44]
Just the cast changes nightly[00:01:47]
It skips like a record[00:01:50]
But it glows like a movie[00:01:52]
You're the country sky[00:01:55]
That I never see[00:01:59]
Shake in your voice[00:02:11]
Makes me feel empty and ugly[00:02:18]
All scattered anger like a windstorm[00:02:23]
Howling violently[00:02:27]
And I wanna fade out[00:02:30]
And wake up somewhere else[00:02:32]
Where no face is familiar[00:02:35]
And I'm left by myself[00:02:37]
To keep plugging away[00:02:40]
On my own wasted time[00:02:42]
To eat badly and spend all my money and write[00:02:45]
To not feel too guilty[00:02:50]
To be tired at night[00:02:53]
Since I'm not fixing things here[00:02:55]
I'll leave them behind[00:02:58]
So you make your decision[00:03:00]
'Cause I'm through making mine[00:03:10]
Now I walk where the street[00:03:17]
Swallows light like it's water[00:03:19]
I see the slant of your smirk[00:03:22]
On every kid at the corner[00:03:25]
But if you called[00:03:27]
I'd never know what to say[00:03:28]
So I just hope you never will[00:03:34]
'Cause things are easier that way[00:03:39]
