Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I take flight on borrowed time
I was once terrified of heights
I say a prayer, I'll look down when I'm ready to die
If you cross over tonight
You see beyond the darkest sky
You taste the blood of something wild and alive
[Verse 2]
You might light up in a flash, you won't hold onto a flame
It's a squalid way to live but it's the rules of the game
It ain't your fault, it's just a shame
To fall without aim
[Verse 3]
I walk down East 7th Street
A wistful, wild depravity
Iconoclastic, black and white, dusty and sweet
I tell this story every time
Real love don't follow a straight line
It breaks your neck, it builds you a delicate shrine
[Verse 4]
You might mourn all that you wasted, that's just part of the haul
Tangling up all your good fortune, bearing the heart of the fall
You won't break it, after all
[Verse 5]
Look at us, man and bride, in a grinding sound
Faithful to a life underground
When the picture fades, the years will make us calm
I'll sing a song at your funeral
Laid in the Mississippi Gulf
Or back home at Waxahatchee Creek
You know you got a friend in me
I'm an angler, married to the sea
