Brace for the Sound

Smoke on the porch
Chasing shadows for shade
Wasting the time I've worked so hard to arrange
Coffee is cold fill it up again
It can be easy
I want to hold it down to the ground
Cover the eyes and brace for the sound
An instant of brilliant light
Then ride off into the sun
I'm tired of the city
I'm tired of the rain
I'm tired of complaining and not changing a thing
Knock down a wall to build it up again
It used to be easy
I want to hold it down to the ground
Cover the eyes and brace for the sound
An instant in life that I'll house in a poem
So I won't have to cry my fucking eyes out
Every time I think of home
I will embrace the sound
I will embrace the sound
I will embrace the sound
Life as an island
Deep in the foreground
Reaching the roots down
Letting it keep me
Life as an island
Deep in the foreground
Reaching the roots out
Letting the current win
Cover the eyes and brace for the sound
So I won't have to cry my fucking eyes out every time I think of home
I will embrace the sound
I will embrace the sound
I will embrace the sound
