Lubbock Lights

Desolate beauty All you'll remember Are the grains of sand And the deafening thorn in your side With a shift in formation Can't outrun the cold No matter how hard you'll try And your eyes follow out loud Soaring into the arms of a song And the weather That itched like a warm sweater And burned like the coffee on the tongue Never fly Directly behind Just take your time If the constellations Perfectly align Shining like Lubbock lights The farthest diamond Where the once strong needles Became brittle And covered with frost And a wintertime stare With the whites of their eyes Feet planted so deeply now That they'll never get lost Never fly Directly behind Just take your time If the constellations Perfectly align Shining like Lubbock lights
