Lyrics

I see the sun coming up making its rounds
As the pale kids go underground
I feed an old man he can't make it downtown
Here's a ten don't waste it now
Tomorrow ill stand
Plain just as I am
This kid in my head wants to never be bent
But we become the songs we sing the most
I seen a matter of fact
Coca-Cola's priced and given out
Like its made for free
While the ones that nourish and make bodies flourish
Always cost an arm and a leg
I seen tomorrow starting to come undone again
In a mustang, desert wind blowing
So bury me under tall redwoods wherever they grow
And dance in the open sun
You had to be there to know
And wait with me all these storms
They never do last that long
Emily you're my stone
She knows how to hold me down
So hold me down
I know these birds can talk
They're waking me up
Tell them we're not wasting an hour
I've been around, around
My friends would be proud
Cause no one ever moves back home
But we hold on to what we always speak
Some songs are prayers
And we hold on to what we have to lose
I gave her my last song today
She found my lighter and stole it
And if we don't belong
These bricks won't build a home
So bury me under tall redwoods wherever they grow
Or where she walks
And dance in the open sun
Stay here until dark
And wait with me all these storms
They never last long
Emily you're my stone
She holds me down
Emily you're my stone
Emily you're my stone
Emily you're my stone
She holds me down
So hold me down
