lyrics

There's a swell in my throat
When I start to let it die
The waves that I rode
And the distance in my eye
This is the Word
Made flesh
The lines on my face
They hold every sunset of yesterday

I keep throwing out my stuff
Maybe to forget
The faces and places I
Haven't let go of yet
No one knows what I've been through
Like you do
But when you cut down that Redwood
You cut me too

You are everything I ever wanted
You are everything I am not
Have you forgot
The parking lot?
That was our real estate
I was born to drive away
Drive away

To those night we jumped those fences
With our forties
To those cuts on my skin you know
They were only a warning
To my friends
Still waiting on my return
There's still so many layers I
Gotta burn

And there are moments I want to
Hold you to my window
Have you ever woken up
To a blanket of snow?
Oh my God
There are mornings that'll take your breath
They're nothing like a Catalina
Silhouette

You are everything I ever wanted
You are everything I am not
Have you forgot
The parking lot?
That was our real estate
I was born to drive away
I was born to drive away
I was born to drive away
Drive away
