Talking Tales

I took the back road to deadlands last night
I wish you were around for the ride
My voice started trembling as I started fumbling my speech
Them photos we took out by the lighthouse
I can't convince myself to throw away
But I'm losing all hope cause them vultures been scoping me I swear

We could leave the town where distance is measured by time
and go out dancing in the rain
We can watch the sun burn down and walk for miles
talking tales till the white and grey

It took some time by did figure out now
All the noises they turned into play
Has the thrill that once drove you now come to escort you away?
Your picture-perfect life I never dreamed of
And my hands are too bruised anyway
But they'll build you the road to a place we'll call home far away

We could leave the town where distance is measured by time
and go out dancing in the rain
We can watch the sun burn down and walk for miles talking tales till the white and grey
You and I can take it passed the barricade
Spend all of our money at the town arcade
Meet me by the riverbed it's getting cold
Ain't willing to borrow by the dice I'll roll

It's a shame you ain't around to receive the moonlight
Listen to the silence in place
Please take this new vision, goddamn this incision away

We could leave the town where distance is measured by time
and go out dancing in the rain
We can watch the sun burn down and walk for miles talking tales till the white and gray
Maybe we can find ourselves a one-stop town, light a flame, blow the world away
Write another tale to tell and ring them bells, sing a song through the dark and grey

It's a shame you ain't around to receive the moonlight
