lyrics

keep it vague

you turn away from me
one of us always will I always knew
we failed to kiss away the pain
& now we can't be true
you turn away from me
I turn away from you
that’s how it goes
I’m sure you always knew
I stole your smile
I sucked it in
and could not bring it back
not even on my face
no use for it
just dropped it into black
I stole your smile
I could not bring it back
I left a hole
and filled it up with lack
keep it vague

This record is straight whiskey. Tom Waits would be proud."—AMERICANA HIGHWAYS ... more
