"Cumberland Town" lyrics

"Cumberland Town"

The wound on your toe is becoming infected
But you and I are not the kind of guys
Who will die going well rested
So we took a cab into the city
And then we ditched the bars
'Cause the beers were overpriced
And the cover bands were shitty
And then we ran
Like kids down to the river bend
While Jessica had her hands on him
You and I, we shoved the ship with sail

The way the light reflected off of the Cumberland
Was like a glass floor with no rug
To be swept from under him
While I stood up top on the lookout wondering:
"Why are you always such a bummer, man?"

And you asked me, how long will I hold on
And I want the feelings gone
And I want the feelings gone
You said: "How quick did she let go?
She said she loved you, did she really though?
To hard to tell, you'll never really know"

So I'll keep wondering
Where the fuck the summer went
To you it's a bit more obvious
You spent it getting drunk
And you spent it talking shit
