lyrics

the wet clouds wait for the sky to halt
and when it don't, brims
swims away the hours gathered at the waist like flowers
wastes away and starts again

Nobody is Lucky

hold steady in this tender time
its alright to loose
so why not give it a try
hold steady in this tender time

the earth glass globe
filled with heat and hope
hanging from spider rope
dying on my breast but oh I haven't tried my best
there is always a philosophy
for a lack of courage and an evil streak
when it all gets bleak
I want you to think
oh how lucky

if love is a duel well then
all the better to loose
all the best assholes are cowboys
but the best poets are fools

Nobody is Lucky

Lady Luck smile on my fate
toss a coin in my cup and I'll bet the race
dogs, dice, cards, or third base

just want to see her face

seen the derby cars dance in the dirt pit
a band hand turn good when the ace hit
winning strike land in the catcher mitt

just want to see her face

I'm all in on a slot machine big jewel
three in a row chewy red or horse shoe
I'm a scorpion drowning in a big pool

just want to see her
