foxes have holes - rewards card lyrics

rewards card lyrics
[verse 1]
locked that box, shovel down and home by 8
paved the grounds, to make sure that was where it’d stay
don’t get stuck in something that you hate to make a sell

[verse 2}
my most honest smiles and times were spent in days
spiraled out, trying to find a place it all could stay
and wondering if it felt that way for everybody else

[verse 3}
i sat down on an empty porch to have a thought
and sort things out, waiting for the race to start
and drifted off, woke up there at noon all by myself

[verse 4}
watch some stray cats dig through trash and then move on
think of things to say if someone comes along
godd+mn, ain’t it hard to feel that all by yourself?

[verse 5}
the silent proper nouns that weren’t on the map
i guess we were all just kind of betting that
life would have some way of taking care of that itself

[verse 6}
the amount of nights that it took to feel like that
deafening screams, a few words hit me from the back
“tell us as fast as you can!” i can, i can, i can’t think
when my cavalry’s singing “oh, time has made a fool of me”
[chorus}
(fate stalls) stall and we start, all that we are
(wait, hope) in leafless oaks, tired and alone
(fate stalls) where time and life could stop and say
“wait, it’s wrong, for now it could”
someday it won’t

{break}
ring a lot of doorbells, carry around a baseball bat
i bet it’s mail in three rooms of h+ll fighting your battles like that
tell me you forgot to set the clock back, tell me that you’ll be here soon
i’ve seen a lot of parking lots, i’ve seen a lot of waiting rooms

the scarecrow fell down, i’m the only one still talking about it
plane it went down, i’m the only one still up all night fighting this

people get so lost when they’re going through the motions
i’m sitting in a field, thinking about the ocean
i’m writing these equations by the post with the light
with the blood on my hands and the power of hindsight
but hovering above this town won’t do a d+mn thing for me now

[outro]
life gets packed in boxes from ceiling to the floor
in places you won’t find yourself pinned down in anymore
if it gets kept a secret, it’s one that’s only there for you
and it won’t ever be too far a walk and won’t be further from the truth
i dragged a part of you through ever day i had
just in case you needed it back
i keep the ground from filling up with dirt and twigs
just in case you hate yourself for losing it
