Killing Cattle In The Valley
Walking with my eyes closed
I float around this town
A chemical imbalance keeps my thoughts from slowing down
I've been living on a houseboat
I've been there quite some time
I get up every morning just to set my fishing lines
If they ever come here and find me dying, waste no time at all
Just put me down like the dog I am, there ain't no one to call
Besides it seems that all I needed was some time alone
And to put some distance between these symptoms, they're all I've ever known
Burning bridges just to feel alive
Telling stories of the afterlife
Laughing so hard that you start to cry
Demanding attention just to tell a lie
Walking home with the summer heat
Repeating yourself until you cannot speak
Then changing the outcome of everything
And killing cattle in the valley
I'd rather live here then sell my soul
And pass on my knowledge once I get old
A thousand lifetimes
A thousand stories
Returning to the fold
Because I thought you were gonna be the one to make it all go away
And I thought I was changing, but I was only replacing the blame
Burning bridges just to feel alive
Telling stories of the afterlife
Laughing so hard that you start to cry
Demanding attention just to tell a lie
Walking home with the summer heat
Repeating yourself until you cannot speak
Then changing the outcome of everything
And killing cattle in the valley
I float around this town
A chemical imbalance keeps my thoughts from slowing down
I've been living on a houseboat
I've been there quite some time
I get up every morning just to set my fishing lines
If they ever come here and find me dying, waste no time at all
Just put me down like the dog I am, there ain't no one to call
Besides it seems that all I needed was some time alone
And to put some distance between these symptoms, they're all I've ever known
Burning bridges just to feel alive
Telling stories of the afterlife
Laughing so hard that you start to cry
Demanding attention just to tell a lie
Walking home with the summer heat
Repeating yourself until you cannot speak
Then changing the outcome of everything
And killing cattle in the valley
I'd rather live here then sell my soul
And pass on my knowledge once I get old
A thousand lifetimes
A thousand stories
Returning to the fold
Because I thought you were gonna be the one to make it all go away
And I thought I was changing, but I was only replacing the blame
Burning bridges just to feel alive
Telling stories of the afterlife
Laughing so hard that you start to cry
Demanding attention just to tell a lie
Walking home with the summer heat
Repeating yourself until you cannot speak
Then changing the outcome of everything
And killing cattle in the valley
