Dog Valley

I’d never try to tell you how I love you

I know that I couldn’t

Do it justice

She’s asleep in the back, and you’re fading next to me

The radio’s off and it’s

Silent

We’re driving through Nevada, and it’s like a hundred outside

And I’m listening

To you breathe

We’re young and broke and stupid, and we don’t know what to do

And it’s heaven

To me

In Dog Valley, I am clean

I’ve always thought I’m evil, like a sickness, like a fever

I am nothing like my mother, I’m no angel

But I’d ride my bike to heaven, I’d beg Jesus to let me in

Cleanse my soul with fire to sit at your table

I know I never say it, but I think you are so beautiful

I’m sorry

But I do

I know you’ll just deny it, so I’ll keep it to myself, but

In my head I am undone

For you

In Dog Valley, I am clean

I’m parked on the street

And you’re talking to me ‘bout a boy who won’t answer

I’d kill him for you if you’d let me

Quickly and easy

There’s something inside me that’s broken

Until we’re laughing in the taxi

Plastered in the backseat

In Dog Valley, I am clean

In Dog Valley, I am clean

In Dog Valley, I am clean

Did you like it?
