lyrics

Highway 1 like a cancer in my mind
Scattered ashes on the sheets
I’m too nervous to be happy all the time
I hope you're never scared of me

Read my palm my friend and tell me who I’ll hurt
That’s a luck I’ve never had
Canyon blues again, a river carved through earth
I hope you never meet my dad
Where is the life I thought I had?

***
Hotels all vacant
The goddess of rage said
I would bear the weight like no other

But now as I write this
The goddess of spite says
All my life I’ve known you were a liar
Blessed are the weak, the drunk, and the tired

On a drive this afternoon…

***
Highway 1 like a cancer in my mind
One room church of painted glass
I still lie awake convinced that I have died
Why does heaven seem so sad?

Read my palm again, the last time didn’t work
Tell me how small I really am
Canyon blues again, the kind that I deserve
Tell me how to be your man
I can’t afford to lose again

***
On a drive this afternoon
Police car in my rear view
They followed close behind
Til we crossed the county line
And I swore as long as I live
I would never hide again
Behind certainty of thought
I would become gentle water
For all time
For all time
