"Berry Herman" lyrics

Colorado's on fire again
And its cinnamon sun is burning my morale
Through the red clouds I'm fumbling around
Picking up pieces of this world I grew up in
While my hands have held nothing
After it burned to the ground

So I'll pick up my feet instead
You'll find me napping in the bays of Yaquina's head
Find me basking in the rays, losing track of my days
I'm escaping this den

Singing don't wait for me
Don't wait for me
Don't wait for me
I've been wrestling with my conscience
And I know our history
But you wrecked it when you burned it
And I left it there to bleed
Took a walk along Herman
Saw the scar of Berry

I'm coming out of the darkness
I'm a man of mud and dirt
I'm a phoenix risen up
I'm just a symbol of my worth
And I'm praying to you well
I've been finding faith in nothings
I've been giving myself hell
Giving others all my love

And I've been taking my time
I've been righting my wrongs
I've been spelling out each dirty deed
And scrambling for this song to sing
And I've been sitting here at Josephine
And I think that all that time can bring
I miss you babe and I miss the state
I miss the old times, I miss everything

Don't wait for me
Don't wait for me
Don't wait for me
I've been wrestling with my conscience
And I know our history
But you wrecked it when you burned it
And I left it there to bleed
Took a walk along Herman
Saw the scar of Berry
