Hear What I Say

Breakdown 1

(written by gregory alan isakov, johann wagner, john elliot)

this house
she’s holding secrets
i got my change behind the bed

in a coffee can,
i throw my nickels in
just in case i have to leave

and i will go if you ask me to
i will stay if you dare
and if i go i’m goin shameless
i’ll let my hunger take me there

this house
she’s quite the talker
she creeks and moans
she keeps me up

and the photographs
know i’m a liar
they just laugh as i burn her down

and i will go if you ask me to
i will stay if you dare
and if i go i’m goin on fire
let my anger take me there

the shingles man they’re shaking
the back door’s burning through
this house she’s quite the keeper
quite the keeper of you

i will go if you ask me to
i will stay if you dare
and if i go, i’m goin crazy
i’ll let my darlin take me there

If I Go, I'm Goin (Gregory Alan Isakov Cover)

and the skies forever wide
as we tread between the tides
and we're kept wading our way through
the fickle seas
of moving on...

Heavy Hand

(...)

every night, fly swallows through the sky
living symbols of another passing day
and inside the quiet times the visions won't subside
of a life I live but I can't seem to pay

so is chasing for the truth just a wasted piece of fruit
when it seems as if were all just passing through
in a daze...gone your way
guess it's time to say your prayers and walk away

and your smoke-stained, sunken eyes and the chaos of my mind
write the hooks to catch the pain in both my ears
beneath these sullen songs live the plans that I've been drawing
but up until now I've been so damn scared to persevere
so who you think that I should be or that life that I should lead
casts a shadow in the depths of this veneer
face your self...gone your way
I think it's time to find your love and walk away

I never meant to let you fall, but I'm done living in this stall
please remember when I'm gone that no lines were ever drawn
and I was there all along....

but why, but why, but why
I'm on my own, I'm on my own
but why, but way, but why
all on my own
all on my own
