lyrics

(We Lost The Names)

When we were born, so pale and unlucky, a salt on the breeze of the ocean

Out by the woodshed, breaking the bottles, daddy won't hit me so long as I have one

Neighbors are gone, his car is unlocked, he left his keys on the dashboard

If you could scream as loud as the breeze would it make you believe that somebody listens?

Throw me like a rock into the wave, aint it bliss to sink and sink down gravity will have it's way

Throw me like a rock into the wave, take the back route past the lighthouse till you find the interstate

And in the car, the radio hums, the staticy depths of a lonesome wind

Remembering days, when you where still clean, we built a shed out of driftwood

You lost your job, chopping down trees, replaced by machines from across the sea

You lost the names, of all of the days, at night I would scream at the ocean
