"Blackrock" lyrics

"Blackrock"

There's a man beside me, his anger spits and shouts
Telling me I'm better off all the times you're not around
A problem with him is a problem solved
By kicking doors and throwing paws around
On a bad day, I don't fight him

I worked watch at the lighthouse
Blurring the hellos and goodbyes
Avoiding all disaster, raising up the warning lights
The day my first ship crashed, maria on the white cliffside
I was hiding, I was hiding, I was hiding

And oh, he's found me out
I've been waiting for this time to come
The cars are fast gone the world is slowing down, slowing down
95 I'm pushing now, unwinding myself homeward bound
No stopping till my body hits the ground

Turning off my headlights, man, I wanna scare myself good tonight
I've been driving for a good time
I've been waiting on the sunlight
To come washing on the pavement
And kill the shadows in the vacant
They're done hiding, I'm done fighting, I'm done fighting

I'm chasing every rush, and I'm throwing out my pride
Took my friends out camping, he was there making jumps across the fire
I leaped off of the quarry, he stayed trailing right behind
I know each time the call was close, I wish he'd died but there's something there inside

And I need him out
He's tearing out a chapter of my life
I'm begging now
I sing of change but what have I lived
About this whole time
The twelve bars and this sick home life
No stopping till my body hits the ground
