Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I guess I got a taste for poison
I've given up on ever bein' well
And I keep mindin' the horizon
Diggin' for lies I've yet to tell
[Verse 2]
And I wish you were here
To softly say my name
Calm down all the chemicals
Tearin' through my brain
I don't think I missed you this much
Since I was seventeen
I'd call you in the morning
But I think this is a dream
[Verse 3]
Cherokee
Cherokee
Well, you'd carve those doubts right out of me
[Verse 4]
I see you shinin' through the treetops
But I don't feel you pullin' strings anymore
I still use your old alarm clock
Every morning, I get further off the course
[Verse 5]
And don't I hear you speakin' in the noises in this house?
Airplanes flyin' over, shakin' all my secrets out
But, darling, tell me something that I don't already know
I'm aware of where to find you, it hurts too bad to go
[Verse 6]
To Cherokee
Cherokee
Well, you'd carve those doubts right out of me
[Verse 7]
I felt like the world was burnin'
You had stars in your eyes
Shinin' for a feeling that I can't afford to buy
But everything you taught me still rattles in my head
I'm stayin' off of Main Street
You're talkin' to the dead
[Verse 8]
In Cherokee
Cherokee
I wish you'd carve these doubts right out of me
