what a little ol'
frail old man.
listen closer to what he's saying.
wrinkled as mountains
hiked from the fountains.
the suns been burning holes in my damn eyes
with a callused heart, so blistered
only could be mine.
make me the king of
your valley of true love.
and i just can't remember
a difference in the weather.
just the rain can fall down.
oh "la"
he sang
in his cabin atop of the sands.
a swallow down backbone
to see its way safe down.
we'll make believe all of the evils gone,
fleeted westward on a path so long.
asleep on a rock face to a tin foil chorus
just the rain can fall down.
it took some time but i figured it out.
now were dead and gone,
and better off than living in this mountain town
made of every little innocent thing we've been telling ourselves.
