ed stockham - burton holmes lyrics

Loading...

there’s a guy i’ll never know because he’s dead
his name was burton holmes and now he’s dead
and he travelled round the world
making videos
and he sold them at his shows and now he’s dead

and with a camera in my hand, oh i tried making videos
and i walked down to the bus stop and gave travelling a go
i saw london in the sun
i saw bristol in the snow
and i saw my pockets empty and i had to go back home

and lately i have hated every video i’ve made
and travelling on holidays just doesn’t feel the same
and i’ve been thinking of just setting off
getting on a plane
to la, california to find burton holmes’ grave

and standing on his skeleton and looking at his stone
i’ll see he lived for almost eighty years
while i’m just twenty-one
and so i guess it doesn’t matter that i’m still getting things wrong
’cause really i’m still growing up and the best is yet to come

it doesn’t matter that burton holmes is dead
’cause others carry on for him instead
people still play shows
and make videos
and they still travel round the world and they’re not dead
