lyrics

There’s scuffs on the glass, from long morning drives, with the fog from your breath, you drew hearts and smiles. Human anatomy penned on the walls, at last resort truck stops, and big shopping malls.

I laid on the sidewalk, in front of the bar, this towns seen me worse, and forgiven so far. I tried to drown my sorrow, but the bastard can swim, we made peace over breakfast, it is what it is.

Roll your memories up like a reel, spent on vacations that never felt real. It’s impossible questions and effortless grace, the grandest of gestures at my rate of pay.

There’s ruts in the carpet, where the bed used to sit, and holes in the door, from fights as a kid. The boxes are packed, and we’re running late, it’s not what you want, it’s what you create.

Roll your memories up like a reel, spent on vacations that never felt real. It’s impossible questions and effortless grace, the grandest of gestures at my rate of pay.

There’s scuffs on the glass, from long morning drives, with the fog from your breath, you drew hearts and smiles.

Virtual Heaven
by Infinity Crush

Just found this by chance in the "if you like David Stone... section" - It's a beautifully warm record, clean and smooth, but without being polished to a shine. Perfect walking-in-Autumn record. David Stone
