tower crane towers - cannon lyrics

[verse 1]
through graying screens of an american dream deferred
where the dugout stories and ragged anthems
are all that can ease the hurt
stepped out into the bright of the urban fight again
displaced and reinvented, sainted and into the wind

those fraying seams of my teenage songs unheard
denim hips and battlefield lips, i fell right in
you took away my innocence, i got repaid with scorn
when all i wanted to find beneath the tree line
was someplace safe and warm

[chorus]
far away and long ago
there was a place i used to know
it hasn’t changed as much as my eyes
green got sad and cold, but even if i’d known
would i have chosen another life?

[verse 2]
through urgent days, every night was a place to hide
i was never really yours out there, and you were never really mine
while all of those chlorine dreams of what we felt was right
drove me out of my mind, running out of time
out of hand, so blind

[chorus]
far away and long ago
there was a place i used to know
it hasn’t changed as much as my sight
hearts get broke, it’s sad, but even if we’d known
would we have chosen other lives?

[verse 3]
the greying streets of this empty town unfold
and i’m coming to find you one more time
before our hearts grow cold
the landscape knows our feet and bears the scars of you and i
the midwest glow lets me know that i’m still alive

[chorus]
far away and long ago
there was a place i used to know
it hasn’t changed as much as my eyes
green got sad and cold, but even if i’d known
would i have chosen another life?

[outro]
whoa
whoa
whoa
whoa
whoa
