lyrics

Don't take photographs
Don't keep tickets
They're just artefacts of missing

I'm sipping on lost moments
I'm holding on to conversations
I don't like the weather this way
Stuck on the hard shoulder
I'm old enough to know better
But better won't find me today

It's not a healthy way to cope, god damn
Not a healthy way to cope, god damn
But it's giving me hope, giving me hope
god damn.

Don't paint pictures
God save your soul if you write another fucking song
It's just vanity masked as vulnerability

I'm sipping on lost moments
I'm holding on to conversations
I don't like the weather this way
Stuck on the hard shoulder
I'm old enough to know better
But better won't find me today

It's not a healthy way to cope, god damn
Not a healthy way to cope, god damn
But it's giving me hope, giving me hope
god damn.

In the plains of the farmer saint, time will eat you alive
The rain and the calm of paint and the turpentine
Four heads on a landscape, a dog's face upstairs
Good grief, good grief, you can see the river from here

I'm holding on to my ambition
The hollow tone of solipsism

This is nothing
I haven't known before
When coping is a part of the house from the walls to the door
I could leave but I'd have to grieve some more
