lyrics

Copper greened just like a slightly casual hand,
hiding cards in decks with your former friends,
How it happened was a mystery, now you’re in trenches,
digging up at the explanations.

The augers and the souls.
The fire and the coal.

Yes, you were warned but you kept going,
wondering how far the needle pulled.
Living on the wishes of your thirst,
But it doesn't phase out “when and how.”

And when we met out by Sawyer’s gate,
You had the newspaper and ticker tape,
calculated like the math in your eyes,
trenches by the wayside.

You’re done running in the same place.
