lyrics

There was soft country, mid August,
Lit up by headlights.
You fell through drive-ins, through diners,
Into a grave.

And you always expected to live out your prime in old age.
And you never expected to forget the sound of her voice.

She was all cheekbone, all leather, all Cash and Eastwood.
Gold-hearted, outsmarted, born and raised.

Now you stay up past midnight distilling sadness,
And make notes for home recipes for steeping ashes.

And you plant what you trap and you trap what you find where it hides.
And it bleeds in the soil, and it breeds a new life.

Because there's a small comfort in playing God when God won't listen.
