On the Rocks

lyrics

Bloodshot eyes (Whiskey’s sight)
Circus mind that runs like wild
Silence sits (on the mountain top)
With the snow and time that stops

Limping man
Proud to sit, fucked up to stand
Turns his head
Casting eyes over the land

Green grass
Silver sea
How could you describe this third stone to me
When we’re
At the top
Despite the feeling, time will never stop.

They say cut a smile
A papercut so mild
Because the last thing we need is another hearse

Sunset comes as he rises up and stands
The view is gone, but it lasts on in his head
You are changed. Revelation takes its toll.
Leave this place, one look and he is gone.
