Postcards

I got lost again
Treading water with the best of them
Hands couldn't tie up loose ends

I guess it's been months now
Stretching phone calls out
The distance it's tangible
It's more than just syllables
Caught between a hard place and terminal gates
I felt the doubt start to take shape

I can't just sit and watch the sunset
Sit and watch the mountains and hope they'll say something
An offering - tell me how to fight this
Show me why I'm like this
Why do I hide away

It's over and it's done now
We can't ever buy back the time we spent bartering sentiment
I know I was the wedge that pushed these tectonic plates apart

Sit and watch the sunset
Sit and watch the mountains and hope they'll say something
An offering - tell me how to fight this
Show me why I'm like this
Why do I hide away

You were the smoke signals I never wanted to see
The courage to cross state lines, all I found was apathy

I can't just sit and watch the sunset
Sit and watch the mountains and hope they'll say something
An offering - tell me how to fight this
Show me why I'm like this
Why do I hide away

I saw the state lines turn to fault lines
Right in front of me, in front of me
The state lines turn to fault lines
