ethan charles - august revisited lyrics

Loading...

in north carolina’s where i’ll dig my grave
next to the tree at highway marker 61
a gun to my head, a lady in bed;
i’m two provisions from a fall

from afar i see a land with parts i can’t quite afford
for a minute i’ll lie back in bed
so when i wake up in an hour, from my lack of self-control
you’ll know i tried to impress; i did my best

with a pack of camel blues
and none but wingtips on my boots
i’m inclined to get specific
with the names

there’s a cowboy in the corridor
and it’s not quite what he came here for
but he knows he’ll have to accomodate
for me

and i call for the sheriff to make a rescue clean
for the sake of all the shirts stuck on our backs
but the lines are obscured, and the window shows more
of what’s at the corner of what i want and what i need

i met a model tonight, on the 30th of august
she handed me a cigarette and promised she smoked the rest
she told me she loves me, i told her i loved her enough
i told her i lived right there and asked her if she wanted to stay the night

on the night my best friend tried cocaine for the first time
i didn’t know just how much i’d left behind

with a pack of camel blues
and none but wingtips on my boots
i’m inclined to get specific
with the names

there’s a cowboy in the corridor
and it’s not quite what he came here for
but he knows he’ll have to accomodate
for me

and i’ve bled through my own t–th to see the sun
if i’m lucky i’ll get to touch it, just that once

and then to north carolina, where i’ll dig my grave
next to the tree at highway marker 61
a gun to my head, a lady in bed;
i’m two provisions from a fall
