You were alone and you were alive
Among the woken dead
He was a liar but not a tone
Still he went to your head

He said, I love you baby like a miner loves gold,
and this will never grow old

There's a bump on the hill, where your body lies
There's a stone in the ground, reads "this man did try"
If you look to the east, you see your estate Weathered and hollowed out by your mistakes
Oh Bobby, baby, we all know the truth
You were looking for love in all the bad that you'd do Bobby, baby, we all know the deal
Your row was hard and long and straight up a hill
Your mother was gone, your daddy did wrong
Your brother died by his own hand Your wife tried so long, but you she disowned

You were a loner,
You were alive
Among the walking dead.

He was a liar,
Would not atone,
Still leaving tonight.

Cold black wings you're flying
Sing like a bird on Sunday morn
You've stopped in to rest here again but I am comin' down
There's no need to stay here, there's nothing that you can do now

I know I neglect them
I hurt them and cheat them but surely they can see
There's more at work here than just the danger and really, it's not me

A bright and shining star
That's what they all seem to be from a distance
It all seems so far
A light that lives just out of reach, painful brilliance

So daydreamer, dream the day away
Sit and watch the players player their silly games

It's late
Too late to run
Besides, this night ain't the one
You could say I turned my eyes blind
You could say I'm the desperate kind

[Chorus:]
I've been watching the line

Lera Lynn - The Avenues (2014)

Empty pages, empty prayer
Empty chest, all the same
No one's gonna know your name if you can't cry and make it rain
Aching bodies, swimming head, a heart that's lost at sea
If someone came to rescue it, I doubt that it'd be me

Lately words are missing from now on. Vanished in the haze of love gone wrong. There's no future, there's no past. In the present, nothing less. Lately some's missing from now on. Lately i'm not feeling like myself. When i look into the glass i see someone else. I hardly recognize this face i wear. When i stare into horizon i see no one there. Lately i'm not feeling like myself.

Well I've seen you at Sarah's hardware store
Buying long matches, two feet or more so
You don't have to get too close to
The thing that might bite and burn you, dear
Well I've seen you at Mary's nursery
Picking up all her sticks and trees and
Hauling it home in Abby's trailer
Building a fire we would savor, dear

This morn I woke in my
Hat and my coat and I
Picked up the phone to call you
But I hung up soon
Before you even knew
Thinking someone else could be beside you
You can run, you can hide
You can save it all inside

They say evrything can be replaced,
Yet every distance is not near.
So I remember every face
Of every man who put me here.
I see my light come shining
From the west onto the east.
Any day now, any day how,
I shall be released.

Something unfolding, unbreaking
I'm watching, I'm waiting
This one is holding, not grasping
No taking, no asking
Love
Love, is this love?
Is this illusion taking over me?
Oh, and how would it feel to make it real?

You fabricate me, necessitate me
I am the cover of your magazines
Your morning dark roast lust cuisine

You can't escape me
Your hate creates me
I am the cancer to your feminine,
The mother of the serpentine

My bed is now a cylinder of steel
Cold and hard and shiny
To match the way I feel
The dust in here is like a burning wind
Black as coal and thunder
Dark as all my sins

I took it for a long, long time

Like a flag on a crane in the wind and the rain
I'm gonna give you all
As the world flowing by we'll be high in the sky
On a lie that is love
We will sing we will dance
We can bang on the chance
But it's more than just love

Lately words are missing from now on
Vanished in the haze of love gone wrongT
There's no future, there's no past
In the present nothing lasts
Lately someone's missing from now on

Lately I'm not feeling like myself
When I look into the glass I see someone else

You're around every corner
I turn at the bottom of every stair
How many long way there'd be somebody sings so I can not forget you're there
It's not that I want to forget forever
I'll bring you back on my own
But won't you please leave it up to me
The nights I am alone

Watching leaves fall in September
The last time that I can remember
You smiling down on me
And the photographs that I had taken of
You in our old kitchen making love
Inside and I, you're in pain
Smell of your left smoking fingers
Bruised and bleeding all still lingers on

this is my least favorite life
the one where you fly and i don’t
a kiss holds a million deceits
and a lifetime goes up
in smoke

this is my least favorite you
who floats far above earth and stone

Waking up is harder than it seems
Wandering through these empty rooms
Of dusty books and quiet dreams.
Pictures on the mantle, speak your name.
Softly like forgotten tunes,
Just outside the sound of pain.

Weren't we like a pair of thieves,

How do you fare with me out there? It seems you're satisfied
Satisfied, satisfied
With your cold and hard refrain

Used to be you looked at me but now we hardly meet eyes
I said seems to be you've become the sea tomb, sinking head of the fire
Head of fire, head of fire
Against your cold and hard refrain

Love is a burnin' thing,
And it makes a fiery ring
Bound by wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire.

I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher,

Shape shifter
Let me catch a glimpse
You've got life, love
To push against

Oh-ohhh
Keep speaking
I'm a swirl of love

My my my, look at what I’ve done to you
Look at what I’ve put us through this time
I, I, I undid all I could undo
And never even faced you eye to eye

But I can’t remember why I left you today
Today you’re another life, a happy memory far away --So far away

I wanna miss you, lonely as the desert sand;
Sparkle like a star, stranger in a faraway land.
Pockets tie his hands up, feet stuck right where he stands,
Divide grows wide ‘tween work and the wants of a man.

One hand holds the pulse, the other a steerin’ wheel,
On one hand it is his curse, on the other it’s what is real.

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Waking up is harder
Than it seems
Wandering through these empty rooms of
Dusty books and quiet dreams
Pictures on a mantel

Waking up is harder than it seems
Wandering through these empty rooms
Of dusty books and quiet dreams
Pictures on the mantel, speak your name
Softly like forgotten tunes,
Just outside the sound of pain.

Weren't we like a pair of thieves,

This is my least favorite life
The one where you fly and I don't
The kiss holds a million deceits
And a lifetime goes up in smoke

This is my least favorite you
Who floats far above earth and stone
The nights that I twist on the rack

" Change will come to those who have no fear.
But I'm not her. You never were the kind who kept a rulebook near.
Weren't we like a pair of thieves. Tumbled locks and broken codes.
You cannot take that from me. My small reprieves your heart of gold.
Weren't we like a battlefield. Locked inside a holy war.
Your love in my due diligence. The only thing worth fighting for.
The only thing worth fighting for "

Change will come to those who have no fear
But I’m not her; you never were the kind who kept a rulebook near
Weren’t we like a pair of thieves? Tumbled locks and broken codes
You cannot take that from me. My small reprieves; your heart of gold
Weren’t we like a battlefield? Locked inside a holy war
Your love is my due diligence, the only thing worth fighting for
The only thing worth fighting for

You can play the part of a golden heart
But you know what you've done
You can pluck a rose
While wearing sheep's clothes
But you know what you've done
You can save face while you're rigging the race
And even when you've won
You stand tall on shoulders you let fall
