This Rookie Runs Lyrics
This rookie runs in the dead of night
Mastering absence and chasing down light
Call from within, the cicadas sigh
of directionless blisses and my privatest cries
Now I will lay me down
between the rocks and the floodways that lead out of town
And I will dream of you
and tell myself I'm right
that it is right
I will awake to cardinal song
those emotional lashings
the fighting is gone
dawn she awaits and I move on
I tell me i'm free
I tell me i'm strong
and I will sleep so sound
between the rocks and the floodways that lead out of town
And I will dream of you
and tell myself I'm right
I did this right
The sun soaks the days, 'til possum acts
he ain't the ace here, he ain't the jacks
he's just a rat in expanded clothes
he's a purposeless mission, a bastard I know.
and I will sleep so sound
between the rocks and the floodways that lead out of town
And I will dream of you
and tell myself I'm right
I did this right
Mastering absence and chasing down light
Call from within, the cicadas sigh
of directionless blisses and my privatest cries
Now I will lay me down
between the rocks and the floodways that lead out of town
And I will dream of you
and tell myself I'm right
that it is right
those emotional lashings
the fighting is gone
dawn she awaits and I move on
I tell me i'm free
I tell me i'm strong
between the rocks and the floodways that lead out of town
And I will dream of you
and tell myself I'm right
I did this right
he ain't the ace here, he ain't the jacks
he's just a rat in expanded clothes
he's a purposeless mission, a bastard I know.
between the rocks and the floodways that lead out of town
And I will dream of you
and tell myself I'm right
I did this right
