Scoreboard of Catan

life's soundtrack from the driver's seat...

But I sing glory from my lowest
And I will say peace to the people I meet
While the world waits for an explosion
That instant of life
That wipes the slate clean

So don't be fooled
No don't get lied to
Love was always cruel

I don't know what I'm doing in this city,
The sun is always in my eyes
It crashes through the windows and I'm sleeping on the couch
When I came to visit you, that's when I knew, I could never have you
I knew that before you did
Still I'm the one who's stupid
And there's this burning... like there's always been
I never been so alone. And I've never been so alive.


We saw the western coast
I saw the hospital
Nursed the shoreline like a wound
Reports of lover's tryst
Were neither clear nor descript
We kept it safe and slow
The quiet things that no one ever knows

So keep the blood in your head
And keep your feet on the ground
If today's the day it gets tired
Today's the day we drop out
Gave up my body and bed
All for an empty hotel
Wasting words on lower cases and capitals
