"Dawncolored Horse" lyrics

"Dawncolored Horse"

I met a girl on runaway ground
Talked like she knew me with a welcoming sound
We said a lot and nothing at all
And time was dripping from the God on the wall

She found a room to be all by herself
Up seven storeys like a doll on a shelf
Counting the days down 1 2 3 4
Nobody's looking 'cept the God on the wall

And he'll let you go
Oh and he'll let you down

So it's alright if you don't want a shoulder
If you don't wanna get over it all
And it's alright if you don't wanna remember
That nothing's forever after all

Hear Roll On Babe from '74
When the wheel won't turn you won't turn anymore
You'll do a lot and nothing at all
Read what I've written to your God on the wall

And he'll let you go
Oh and he'll let you down

So it's alright if you don't want a shoulder
If you don't wanna get over it all
And it's alright if you don't wanna remember
That nothing's forever after all

When you're unsettled
Find your breathing castle
Double lives extricably tied

So it's alright I can be a shoulder
I can be a way out of it all
And it's alright if you wanna remember
That nothing's forever after all
