lyrics

a 100 miles from nowhere
that's where you'll find me
short on beer and long on memories
the paint is peeling off this house
the rats are eating up this house
everyone has left this house but me
i step into the front yard
stare down the railroad tracks
i always run away
but i always come back

CHORUS:
how do you
how do you hold on
to what you haven't felt
for so long?
and i don't want
i don't wanna sing
another sad song
but don't it feel like
everything went wrong

couldn't find work
so i drank the money we didn't have
she said i was no good
i said i was just bad
she'd stay out for days
and i'd punch holes in the walls
if she was a slow fade
then i was a long fall
screaming in the backyard
at myself and at the moon
why did heaven turn
into hell
at full bloom?

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
i have walked through the fire
and i still feel the burn
i have struggled with desire
yeah some folks never learn

a 100 miles from nowhere
that's where you'll find me
lost in the desert
and drowning in your sea
our daughter would've been
five around now
i can still see her walking
through this house somehow
so i step into the front yard
fall down into the dirt
it's scary how much pain
your own hands are worth

CHORUS
