lyrics

today is just hillsides and fog
stained glass - people walking their dogs or jogging -
sun throwing down roots
on sweaty palms hanging from brooks brothers suits at the airport

you've bloomed like fruit in a hothouse
your miracle's all that you've got now
grace out of habit, strength from above
me i still sorta think i'll meet my true love
at the kroger while i'm ringing out

checking the price of outgoing flights out of habit
it's only nature to bend your leaves toward the light
what's the use in waiting for it?
they're not gonna pick you up

today is just creeps on the bus
semi trucks stirring up dust
the sun doesn't see that it burns you
the clock doesn't realize that's not the same 12 it returns to

so out we go, holding the 9-iron high in an electrical storm
if you gotta go at least you're gonna go lit up and warm!

in the valley of the shadow of death i'm scared as hell
still waiting for the noise of a chopper overhead
what's the use in waiting for it if it's never gonna come?
what's the use in waiting for it if it's never gonna come?
