Dirt For a Dying Sun

it's a cold night in winter

you said you wanted to stay

and you don't wanna talk

we could lay here or fuck

but you ain't got nothing to say

it's all been given away

the big ball's down

and it's raining champagne

people are crowding the street

i tried to get out of this city by now

but it's just got a hold on me

and i ain't gonna get free

summer nights and fireflies

make it easy to love someone

easy to love someone

city lights and tall high-rise

have you heard what we all become?

dirt for a dying sun

it's first day of the new year

and we woke up feeling like hell

breakfast is beer, some cigarettes, some tears

and the morning after pill

someday it's gonna get real

guess i might see you later on

if you're ever out on this side of town

cus i never leave and i don't really believe

i wouldn't just let you down

if i ever came around

falling apart in real time

make it easy to love someone

easy to love someone

windy seas and ravens' eyes

tell me where i come from

halfway to nowhere

even halfway to nowhere's gone

heard you're moving west

and you sold all your copper

your necklace, your mother's rings

i wish you the best and if you'd

come by tomorrow i'd

give bout anything

to be underneath your wing

one more time again

lay me down easy

lay me down like rain

so i can see your dancing colors

and feel the crashing waves

with the heartbeat of the day

with the heartbeat of the day

it's the damage done

it's the prodigal son

it's the pieces we wanted to hide

just two blocks down

there's a factory cloud that's

burning a hole in the sky

in the heartbeat of the night

in the heartbeat of the night

summer nights and fireflies

make it easy to love someone

easy to love someone

city lights and tall high-rise

have you heard what we all become?

dirt for a dying sun

dirt for a dying sun

dirt for a dying sun

dirt for a dying sun

dirt for a dying sun
