For an Empty Bar, on a Dying Planet For an Empty Bar, on a Dying Planet For an Empty Bar, on a Dying Planet

In another life You and I both joined the Coast Guard Is that why all my songs sound like the ocean? How many times do we sail on by each other? How many times are we forever?

Out here in the ocean shallows, facing the ineffable is most the problem Salt tank hollow, dark brown liquor straight from the bottle It's peaceful in the waters of tomorrow Our current run deep like dreams drowned and year dragged on visions of what could have been dredged up from the ocean bottom Hold it all, momentary sorrow Hold it all, momentary sorrow Let it go and surf above the waters In the sun-drenched surface with a rum drink from the cabana Don't let the undertow of your own thoughts drag you down to the ocean floor With them rusted out husks covered in barnacles Keep your balance, move grace, and never heed the sirens call Peace out, that's all I got for y'all

Never wanted to be too young to hold on Never wanted to be too old to break through Caught up in the storm just like everyone else Just hoping to find someone like you Thank you so much for watching, and I'll see you in the next video.

Follow me where the rivers run dry Where the rivers run dry It's all been in plain sight All along, all along

Rainwater's poisoned Arscenic's on the wind Na-na-na-na-na-na Lately it's been feeling like we already went past the end Arscenic's on the wind

Count your ties where the rivers run dry Where the rivers run dry falling leaves, all the crops gone die all the crops gone die

Rainwater's poisoned Arscenic's on the wind Na-na-na-na-na-na Lately it's been feeling like we already went past the end Arsenic's on the wind

Do it all Everything On our own We don't need Anything Or anyone

If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know How to say How I feel Those three words Are said too much They're not enough

If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me and just forget the world? Forget what we're told Before we get too old Show me your garden that's burstin' into life

Let's waste time Chasin' cars Around our heads I need your grace To remind me To find my own

If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me and just forget the world? Forget what we're told Before we get too old Show me your garden that's burstin' into life All that I am All that I ever was Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see I don't know where Confused about how, as well Just know that these things will never change for us at all

Green plastic watering can For a fake Chinese rubber plant In the fake plastic earth

That she bought from a rubber man In a town full of rubber plans To get rid of itself It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out

She lives with a broken man A cracked polystyrene man Who just crumbles and burns

He used to do surgery For girls in the eighties But gravity always wins And it wears him out It wears him out It wears him out It wears

She looks like the real thing She tastes like the real thing My fake plastic love

But I can't help this feeling I could blow through the ceiling If I just turn and run And it wears me out It wears me out It wears me out It wears me out And if I could be who you wanted If I could be who you wanted All the time All the time
