A to G 03:45
You and I will hang our hearts on the stars in the sky Where the sun keeps em warm while we are tumbling Down to the ground through the clouds where we wrap up the storms in a pocket we hold The last of the sounds and the last of the noise bleeding in to your skin While you’re waiting for me Run back round till the crown Can sovereign a step in the back with the beat, the shake and the heat. The moon starts rolling in, pulling tide, harvest all, this space for my wine and the feeling is one And the feeling is hard and the feeling it starts to scream Just hold on While you’re waiting for me Right or Wrong While I’m waiting for you Right or Wrong Everyone's watching and everyone sees the letters addressed to don't wind up like me. You see Due west of the squall stand from the crawl and Being me their Riches and bring me their hearts bring us the feeling of fallen apart. If you pull the shot it I'll take the blame, rapture the people who always complain and if you want to stop on top for the scream

Crown 05:47
Sure is something man it’s sure been long long time I've been taking time I've been speaking softly So im Seeing which way it goes Keeping an eye out so if you show I'm working on this crown Clean like the morning waves You remember the old sunshine Torn pages 8 and 9, Told this story a thousand times Swinging from the branches You recall My head leans towards the sky screaming to all, I'm working on this crown. I’m working on wearing this crown I keep it clean like my gun wipe the prints off while i run I ain't gonna hide it girl the cold steel in my hand melt it down to mold you one, but you keep on staring at the sun Dried up box of tears I saved them from my oldest crimes I keep me underneath my bed For the nights that the moon don't shine Decided not to sharpen all my claws Putting my sword down when the rooster calls Im working on this crown

This is the second night That she’s been away It’s a lonely road In a lonely state Its the storm ahead That’s keeping her awake It’s just one more town Till the borderline and the signal’s out with a spare behind she staying out of the mirrors she's rinsing all of her crimes. she see’s future in the roads mile markers like a rose she’ll trade diamonds for distance as long he’s left behind and when the stars come out when he pulled the shade it was an out right war and the efforts were weighed and the thread in the seems had the scent of her lies and the fiction of a dream is the silence that he needs and the arrow he pulled was shot with a broken string

Midwestern 03:16
I found a love that won't kill me I found there in her heart I found her hands they were restless They carried my wine through the war He puts his hand over his heart When her name comes around He drinks every morning To the maroon in her gown And he's never been bothered by the rain She found a window that opened She found it with her ear to the floor The comfort of the cracks in the hardwood Is the time that she spent there before She's hoping he'll catch her As she jumps from the sill She ain't gonna look down She just trust in his will And she's never been bothered by the rain The rains just relentless and keeps coming down He gives up on shelter and that old Midwestern town These days on the porch in the hot heat While the moon is laying in her eyes They don’t tell the stories of their saviors They just whistle and say their goodbyes
