![]() Carried To Dust (2008) [ larger cover art ] |
Walking south along the river
Never had he found that twist of pleasure
Remembering times when they were younger
Setting the town on fire
And watching as his fellow friends
Fell apart in the wake
Claiming it was all just a mistake
When his finger pulled the trigger
And he shot everyone
It was all just a mistake
When he shot everyone
Nothing will stand in the way
When hunger hasn't eaten for days
Scrounges around where ends meet
Then disappears into the fray
He hopes for a while he can reconcile
But the pain that never dies
The ghosts of his family constantly
Gnawing at his inside
He pulls out a worn out photo
And an old handmade gun
Wishes it was he who was frying
When he set the whole town on fire
He walks off crying
He shot everyone

| coloradojohn (A Mile High and then some, Cherry Creek, Denver) | Posted: Feb 20, 2013 - 09:40 Typically awesome stuff! and I love looking into the cover art — reminds me of the solid dashboard and interior of the old Impala I used to drive through that same part of the world; dig it! | ||

| ncollingridge (Knebworth, UK) | Posted: Jan 06, 2011 - 01:14 Just gorgeous. I'm sure that Calexico must be close to the most-played band on RP, and there's no argument with that from me! | ||
