lyrics

goodbye city goodbye your sky
goodbye all the love that i'll ever need for pages
goodbye 23 goodbye food on the table all of the time
goodbye running around and screwing around
and getting caught with your pants down for ages
something i remember i'm a needle in a hay barn
when i'm walking through you in the dark through the park
so i thank you i love you miss you kisses i'll come back to get you

hello country hello industry
hello fighting that machine only to wake up feeding it
hello many doors hello blurring all the lines that had such clarity before
hello sleeping around and cheaping around
and getting caught with the fence down what a nuisance
then i still remember i'm a droplet in an ocean
when i think about all that your doing all that you got going on
my head is a ribbon unwrapping unraveling itself until it's gone
when i think about all that your doing all that you've got going on

oh my how sweet it is to carry you
whether i stick around or leave
oh my how new it is next to you
whether i'm on or off my feat
oh my how human it was to know
whether you brought me peace of mind or ate my insides
oh my how sweet it is to carry you
may you lay in the words that get air play
in those words may you lay
