Caught in the Wake (OurVinyl Sessions)

Nothing in town is open

The windows are nailed up with boards

The man in the lighthouse is cryin'

There's pictures all over the floor

So he's in for a long night

And it ain't so much the storm

He's too short on pay and he can't stay awake

There's water comin' under the door

So please slow down

So that you could be found

'Cause right now, you're just caught in the wake

Well, I found something that's broken

It's toxic and lonely and poor

The man in the lighthouse is tryin'

But don't wanna be here no more

So I'm in for a long night

And it ain't so much the storm

It's too hard to say and I can't find a way

To somewhere safer on shore

So please slow down

So that I don't fuckin' drown

'Cause right now, I'm just caught in the wake

Well, I made my way to the lighthouse

There was a mirror instead of a door

The sign on the wall said it closed down

In 1934

It don't matter what's wrong or right

'Cause now I'm in better form

And two times a day, it lights up the bay

For someone stuck in the storm

So please slow down

Well, I'm happy that I got found

'Cause right then, I was caught in the wake
