lyrics

Loss can fill small towns as fast as word gets around
Like there’s news about the neighbors underground
You say it’s in how the pieces fit
It’s in the clenching of my fists shaking
It’s where my eyes avert when connection fails
To where we hail

Where the bar’s as low as we can set it
And where we go to gather and recall
Try to forget
If we’ve got to die my only fear was doing it here
But you caught a bad hand
You caught a band hand
And you scorch the land
Don’t you understand
When we can’t stand we scorch the land

There’s a shake in your demeanor
It’s meaner than the rising sun
So you go saying things like you won’t see another one
You think home is where you hang your anger
Had the future ever failed
To take what’s done us wrong and catch the gale
Set them to sail

Where the bar’s as low as we can set it
And where we go to gather and recall
Try to forget
If we’ve got to die my only fear was doing it here
But you caught a bad hand
You caught a band hand

But imagine if we were sitting in the car
Just you and the weight of a small world and me
Still free to take flight rather than flicker like the lights
Outside the bowling alley OTB
When I curse all it holds I guess I’m cursing you too I suppose
My angel of mercy
There before me with her hand on the garden where all life grows
And she says stop
It’s just another tired place somewhere in America
But I have to see it
I have to live with it
I can’t forgive it
I’d like to watch it burn down

And I'll say it again
When we can’t stand we scorch the land
