Coeur d'Alene

Could we ever live like this?
When our backs are turned to the great abyss?
Now I’m staring over shore.
Chin up, back straight and wanting more.
Take me out of this house before I lose my mind and take this town.

“You can’t take me out of this. I forfeit. Yea, I’m out.”

(Push into the vintners glow)
I’m tearing down the vines again.
(Tearing it down, it’s wearing me down)
Waiting on the light to go.
Something’s telling me to heed the snow.
I’m pushing forth into the vintners glow.
I want to taste the blood of ancient man.
And did you ever hear the clock when it smiles in the night?
And have you ever seen the clock?
You know when something ain’t right?

With a vintners sneer and a lucky man like me?
I know your cavalier and a piece of shit like me.
Calls from far away, they band with cold teeth.
Wait for the vein, til' the blood of everything is all I wanted, all of it.
Calm down now, please hold me, warm my teeth.
Fuck it!

Could we ever live like this?
When our backs are turned to the great abyss?
Now I’m staring over shore.
Chin up, back straight and wanting more.
Could we ever live like this? When our backs, yea could we live like this.
You know that now I am staring over the shore,
I got my chin up, back straight and nothing more.
I’m tearing down the lights again.
Gaze into the vintners glow.
History tells us to heed the snow.
Song and dance to pass the time.
Grins and smiles, “My Oh My!” Nursery rhymes with cursory lines.
Look at us laugh “My Oh My! Oh Yes Time Has Flied.”
Could we ever live like this?
