Альбом Band Of Horses

The elevator in the hotel lobby has a lazy door
The man inside is going to a hotel room
He jumped out right after seeing just the very sight of me
Decided he'd better hike it to the second floor

Its temporary, this place I'm in
I permanently won't do this again
My belongings scattered all across the hotel floor

Now and later, I was thinking it over by the snack machine
I thought about you and a candy bar
The Now & Laters now that I've got stuck between my teeth
I fell asleep to the greatest movie of the year

A man gets lonely, for heaven's sake
He's wondering only what did you do today
The world is spinning around to an old sad song

Well, it's coming down outside like Ive never even seen before
I fell into some kind of sorry state
But looking back now, I think it's time for me to laugh about it
And get my things together and find something to say

Well, I feel awful and I believe
That time gets wasted in this misery
And darling, I never wanna come back home

I'm fixing a drink in the morning, with the way things are
You may have stayed too long
It's splitting apart at the seam from the hospital call
You've known him so long

If there's a god up in the air, someone looking over everyone
At least you've got something to fall back on

Deep in the heart of the country was a house I built from logs
A raven and a lady hawk
Quiet and calm through the day, see the sun burn through the fog
Approaching was a yellow dog

If there's a god up in the air, someone looking over everyone
At least you've got something to fall back on
And what are people reeling from, does anybody even care?
I bet you get a lot of compliments down there

If there's a god up in the air, someone looking over everyone
At least you've got something to fall back on
Do you got something to say, is there something coming over you?
Do you got important things still left to do?

Gonna take a trip to Laredo
Gonna take a dip in the lake
Oh, I'm at a crossroads with myself
I don't got no one else

Possibilities at the door
I won't be needing them anymore
Oh, is this the first time in your life
It's hard just to get by?

But oh my love, don't you even know?
And oh my love, are you really gone?

Can you see the world through a window?
Are you having troubles in droves?
Oh, I think the worst thing I could do
Is get back home to you

I put a bullet in my Kia Lorenzo
A kitchen knife up to my face
Throw me in the deep of Jenner Lake
Believe me when I say

That oh my love, you don't even call
And oh my love, is that you on the phone?

And oh my love, you don't even know
And oh my love, are you really gone?

I used to see the night so anxious, but now I know
The only thing it ever taught me was a grand illusion that comes and goes
The city blanketed in snow

What if we die, no end and no conclusion?
How could you smile, just walk away?
Well, I don't know
I don't know

I met you at the railroad station, now years ago
And something happened on the night I last drank with you in the neon glow
Now I don't see you anymore

The Midwestern sky is gray and cold
The sun never shines but that's alright
And I couldn't find the letters that you wrote me
What did you write, where'd you go? Well, I don't know

Take a little time, gonna roll the dice
Taken for a ride, any normal life will do too
Find another way, try to break the ice
Every day and night the banana peels were true, true

On my way back home, by chance I thought of
All my favorite songs, where I'd gone wrong
The only words that I could think of
I'm pissing my life away in the form of a song
On my way back home

Every step, a victory it was
I was cheating death, just in time I woke
My memories start to wander off
Come to me, the remembrance of
On my way back home

I came in this way and here now I'll stay
If the unknown have to wait one more day
There's often times that it comes out wrong
But luckily I, I got a mind to know
On my way back home

I had a dream, I had a dream
That I was your neighbor, about to give birth
And then everything was really hurt
And I was so lonely I didn't see

It's like living in a movie
Twisting the plot
My friends and family
Little things I've got, I got

When my thoughts drift to you

I love the morning, I like to listen
The 4 AM birdies begging to feed
Now there's something here before me, a figure I think
Isn't there a warning or something to drink? My god, my god

When my thoughts drift to you

These mended bones, the storms approach
Ever so slowly out on the sea
There's an animal below me, lack of control
Others came before me, others to come, to come

When my thoughts drift to you

Just the mentioning of (Just the mention of)
such a simple phrase.
Are we passengers on (seperated trains)
separated trains?
Take the mask off (Take the mask of)
when you speak to me.
And I'm alright to go on (It's the little things)
it's the little things.

But anymore, you've become.
A ??? to everyone.
To everyone.

I'm reeling in the wrong day getting behind (?)
Why didn't i think "what in the world?"
It really took a tall one to see it
Two to believe it
Three to just get in the way

All your life to think of (All your life think of),
what a mess you made.
Dig a hole in the ground (for your wedding ring)
for your wedding ring.
Rainmaker call (the Rainmaker call)
throw your hammer down.
And everything that I know (Can't remember now)
can't remember now.

Anymore, you've become.
Inherent of another one.
Another one.

I reeling in the wrong days, getting behind
Why didn't I think "what in the world?"
It really took a tall one to see it
Two to believe it.
Three to just get in the way.

(oooo oooo oooo)

Drive out with the sun in your eyes
You wasted my time
It's true, it's true

My god, don't you hold out your hand
I called off my plans
I counted on you, on you

And if you're ever left with any doubt
What you live with and what you'll do without
I'm only sorry that it took so long to figure out

(oooo oooo oooo)

Got lost in the places I've been
I should go out with my friends
I'd go tonight but I know you'll be there too, there too

For me, this bottle of wine
Is to slow down my mind
And forget the things that I knew, I knew

And if you're ever left with any doubt
What you live with and what you'll do without
I'm only sorry that it took so long to figure out

(oooo oooo oooo)

Climb the cliff, Tower over all
And falling water, falling waterfall

And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older

It's time to dry off tattered overalls
Impatient waiting, Way to hide a fall

And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older

And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older

After all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older

And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older

If I want to walk home with you
Hearing every word, thinking it's true
In a barren field for us to cut through
On our victory lap 'cross an old street cat

That turns to stop and see you
A small stone somewhere in your shoe
All day long
All day long
Long

The old folks wake up for the day
Seeing the monsters have lingered from the past
And a great bird is flying away
From our family tree; something wrong with me

I've got a secret or two
Hiding somewhere but
It won't take long
No it won't take long
Long

Northwest apartment, apartment
I'm driving over in Oakridge baby with the whole neighbourhood in tow
Somebody trapped in the underground basement just a few blocks down the road
Northwest apartment, apartment

With three guitars and one amplifier I'm gonna blow the dust off this scene
Everybody in population are gonna find out what I mean
Northwest apartment, apartment
When all the parts equal more than the sum
And the sum equals none

This thing was built in a day knowing that the Romans took longer than that
We brought a bass player a cold old soul and he's a first class welcome mat
Well cleaned apartment! Apartment

In the morning I wake up I'm ready for the night time to begin
And what's that over there on my pillow someone sleeping in my bed
Northwest apartment, apartment

When all the parts equal more than the sum
And the sum equals none
Yeah, well

The wind blew a path through the fallen leaves
And there showed a crack in the old oak tree
The door stood as if it was standing guard
Of the dozen chipmunks in the backyard

Every house not a home but dare do I roam
There's a light on the porch here for someone

Once upon a time in a border town
The war was over, the guns laid down
The women, the men, the children saved
Now it's hard to remember it any other way

When the law acts as though there is nothing to show
There is compassion and depth in a neighbor

Now if Bartles & Jaymes didn't need no first names
We could live by our own laws in favor

Every house not a home but dare do I roam
There's a light on the porch here for someone

Now if Bartles & Jaymes didn't need no first names
We could live by our own laws in favor
