LYRICS
I’ve been trying
to swallow the sun
I’ve been running from the morning every night
The seasons cycle through in their colors
And I’m somewhere between a woman and a child

I’ve been having dreams
Where I am flying
Flying underneath the prairie moon
The wheat stretches out like an ocean
I know I won’t be coming home soon

I am dizzy
With my memories
And the feeling of time spinning past
I’ve got whiplash
But the cars won’t slow
No they only continue to crash

I had a man
he thought himself a cowboy
But cowboys are supposed to be brave
And he went running off
like a coyote
Running with his tail between his legs

He’s probably downtown
drinking up the neon
Pouring his best line into her glass
Smiling a smile
He saw in a movie
Cardboard charms are not built to last

I am dizzy
With my memories
The feeling of time spinning past
I’ve got whiplash
But the cars won’t slow
They only continue to crash
I am dizzy
With my memories
