Strays

歌詞

Looks like a mild winter, Although the streets are cold, The streets are always cold. Burning tires pass us by Like they can't wait to be somewhere new. It was a riotous summer. Thunderheads hot like a fever On my sunburnt brow. When I took that vow, I thought, This must be somewhere new. Glory fades like the last rays Of the last sun on the last day In a lost town. When a month goes by without you I think of thunderheads And young souls On an old ground. And maybe time will test you Until the rains wash you Down Down Down. Or maybe you'll stand and bow. Across Ohio she's writing reflections. I can see my own reflection, as I stand To leave the room. How can I stand who I've become, When my past isn't kind? I've got this fear about living, 'cause it comes with dying. I am dying to be good to her In the time I have, my God, What will we do with all this time? Passion fades like the last rays Of the last sun on the last day On an old ground. When a month goes by without her I think of ice cream on a gray day In a cold town. And maybe time will test us Until the rains wash us Down Down Down. Or maybe we'll stand and bow. I'm watching the haze Of the last rays of an old sun Fading to brown. When a month goes by, I question. Was it real? Or did I miss What I should have found? Time can make us all A little stronger, if we break the walls That cause us not to see round. And we turn to face what's now.
