Band Of Horses - Mirage Rock lyrics

Better things come to those who wait Then appearness left for all too late Greatness achieved, and darkness defeated Ram shack crew with something to prove And the truck blew up believe it You see me go, there's something coming your way Everything I want, and everything I need So say it to me, say it to my face There's no time to be reserved or safe Call just chill, whenever Glory till the end Everything I want, and everything I'll get It's coming now, It's going down The stars are falling, walls are coming all of hour Knocking on the doorway, look who's coming your way Everything I want, everything I need Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Uh-u-u-u-uh Uh-u-u-u-uh No one's gonna know it The right ones are green Ṗroving wrong the other one's winning We're fine, when I'll win Look what's in the door There's something coming your way Everything I want, everything I need Knocking on the doorway Hey look what's coming your way It's Everything I want, It's everything I need Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Knocking on the door Knocking on the door When I'm giving advice to others I take more than I can give It's a birds eye view of what I want you to do Or how to live And I really don't have to suffer I still do it anyway I'm a diamond in the rough Or I'm a dirt clod in the clay Guess what I lost my job It's just my luck Reveal you've always been the actor And those puppy dog eyes Well one of y'alls tellin' the truth The other one is lying And it's someone else's fault so often You're gettin' rude, you're gettin' tall It's a great big world darlin' your translation is just a little off So what You made a mistake You try to hide the time The time is life Gets a little bit larger everyday And it grows till it's out of control I've been giving my advice to others Trying to tell them how to live A little lying, a bit of truth What I'd like for you to do And how to give And I really didn't need to suffer I still did it anyway What a great big world I better find some way to stay Guess what? You're gettin' old Still gotta grow up The biding of time getting stuck in my mind is a boat to roll Two hours later, back in my neighborhood where everything just stalled It still looks the same They remembered my name, steppin' in for a cup full There's a big city man, I used to rumble with him back in high school The slow cruel hands of time Turn you into molten lava, ohhh my A place on the rise you can stop for awhile Look-out for the police man There's no street lamps, only three buildings and one of them's vacant It's taking all day. The packs feeling heavy and soon the night Backwards down the mountain, the axle is grinding, pull into the wrong drive The sky is in the yard The stringy cotton candy is the fall The slow climb, the hard the fall. Sometimes I don't want it at all I've done this so long, its something I oughta know. Sooooooo long Finally up on the pieces disrupting and the birds fly Trapped for a moment, the sheriffs department got the wrong guy The towns reveal the law Visible wind through the fall (fog ) The slow cruel hands of time Turning you back into a child Welcome to another world Look at the water Look at whatever Broke the last one apart And out it back together It didn't matter It's a little biblical A little bit tragic Maybe fantastic Every once in awhile Every little thing, every little thing I'm old enough to know If I'm holding on for something I'm old enough to see If I'm not the only one When we get back to town Back from the islands Back to where I live Well we need to have a word A topic to touch on The topic is touchy Yea, this is pitiful A lack of reception You never listen I don't need another round Nothing is perfect This isn't worth it I'm old enough to know If I'm holding on for something I'm old enough to see If I'm not the only one Yea, smashed it apart And the rains wouldn't start Till everybody was gone Moving on to the next one I'm old enough to know If I'm holding on for something I'm old enough to see If I'm not the only one Wooo oooo ooo o Wooo oooo ooo o Every time you try to pick up just the pieces Feelin' bad for yourself Watching all the foreign cars or f*gs in breezes From a window instead. From a window instead Find it hard to see the good or face the music Looking backwards again Over sentimental staring halfway horizontal When I think you're a new man. When I think you're a new man Soon I'll repeat what you said. Soon I'll repeat what you said Soon I'll repeat what you said. Soon I'll repeat...... Morning calls us early birds my babes and beagle, still resting their heads Their waking up to noisy doors or stomping feet Of a restless old man. Of a restless old man Wooo oooo ooo o Wooo oooo ooo o Wooo oooo ooo o Wooo oooo ooo o Worn and tattered Evils of the western world Real better Over in America The weather So serene and calm Unseasonably warm Light a candle for the suffering ones Light a candle for the weak and the small God damn it there's a lot of 'em You kind of think that in the modern world Holy terror Asleep when the alarms went off You're in the mirror Studying You're cold and lost ...and I love you Let's marry when the time is right Or whenever you like Well, say a prayer for all the people that died Say another for me once in awhile I hit rock bottom Getting old I was really hoping that the modern world... Happy living in a dumpster world Break out everybody in the jail Let's get it on (Let out the wolves) Let out the wolves I'm happy living in a dumpster world (Bring on the booze) Bring out the booze Start it all And we won't be arrested, for nothing at all Don't you pick up that trash, put more of it on the ground (Bust out the d**) I'm happy living in a dumpster world (Everyone in jail) Everyone in jail Yeah let's get it on (Let out all the wolves) Let out all the wolves I'm happy living in a dumpster world (That's mine now) That's mine now Come and get it on (Bust out all the d**) Bust out the d** Light a candle for the suffering ones Light a candle for the weak and the small Say a prayer for all the people who've gone There's no hope for any modern world Listen to the motor Getting louder as we go One way or another Gonna make it back home Mountains to the water Chewing up the scenery Fog it only hovers Or it blinds us on beams This it what it does Traveling the open road Get here on the double We'll make it right away This is what it loves Traveling the open road Now she's talking dirty I'll get there in a hurry and see You don't have to worry A secret little birdie told me Keeping things in motion Baby keep on running from me The static on the radio I'm picking up speed Hear me out mama I don't mean for you to weep Back to you tomorrow Now don't you lose sleep This is what it does Traveling the open road Ooohhh Ahh, Ooohh Hey it's 9:30 My vision's getting blurry to me I'll get there in a hurry But the police are following me But keep it in perspective And maybe come and visit for free And I hear it on the interstate in Nashville, Tennessee Hey, Hey Hey, Hey Hey, Hey Ooohh Keeping things in motion Babe you're running from me The static on the radio I'm picking up speed Hey, Hey Hey, Hey Hey, Hey Ooh, Oooh Started building up a fortune Stashed away in a hidden place We can hide if you want to We can hide up in one day Everything's gonna be undone Everything's gonna be undone Everything's gonna be undone Oooo Ooo oo oooo How'd you get to be wound so tight Never seen somebody such a mess Try you will and you try you might We be falling ....... Everything's gonna be undone Everything's gonna be undone Everything's gonna be undone Oooo Ooo oo oooo You know that it will You know that it will.... So many things I could have written down In the pa**ing of a restless night Some of those were worth keeping There are things which you should never write Everything's gonna be undone Everything's gonna be undone Everything's gonna be undone Oooo Ooo oo oooo You know that it will You know that it will.... You think you found another loved one Now you know that you were never apart You know that everything you leave undone You couldn't take another broken heart Everything's gonna be undone Everything's gonna be undone Everything's gonna be undone Oooo Ooo oo oooo Oh, oh where we get this hope I can't tell the weak thing is tough You better get this go But that is space I want to go on And I've got to move far, at my own pace I don't want it no more, more Feud, yeah you got an attitude Today you're on the T.V., I need you to tell, let's give hell Just a little justice I sing this... Give a little money and a house and the car Filling up your pockets but it's all that you got I want you to feud, feud It's just a freak show, wait till you see it from the inside He was caught sleeping, steady dreaming when the ship caught fire I'm out of time I dressed up my heart, my heart Give a little money and a house and the car Filling up your pockets but it's all that you got I want you to feud, feud Hey little darling Sweet little love of mine Well it's only a matter of time And all that you see All you set out to find Don't let anything change your mind At the break of day In the middle of the night Remember me and don't go out I'm in the running, in the running Ohhhhhhhh You got me where you want me, where you want me Ohhhhhhhh It's harder to recall Half the many bad times Or the frame of my mind, the frame of mind Who could even blame me in hindsight You snuck around with that guy It wasn't right It isn't funny, isn't funny Ohhhhhhhh No it's nothing, it's nothing My wits don't show me the way The blankets fold it have stayed in place Just as they were made I'm in the running, in the running Ohhhhhhhh You got me where you want me, where you want me And no ones gonna show you the way When it gets cold you can find yourself babe Back in the hole from which you came And everything will fall into place Did you think that I'd just slowly start to fade You could steal my livelihood and send me on my way I know it's old but I was caught out in the rain So I rested under a bridge And I made some new friends And I wept, and I wept Did you really think that I'd just stand in line Wait around for you until whatever time you'd like And I took the pieces of a broken heart And I had no choice Heartbreak on the 1-0-1 Heartbreak on the 1-0-1 I'm over it You leave me more damaged everyday You took my entire world and threw it all away It's cold outside, I need a place to lay So I rest beneath the bridge with the friends that I made Couldn't really think that I'd just stand aside Take up something new, or start another life Look at the pieces of a broken heart And see what you can do Heartbreak on the 1-0-1 Heartbreak on the 1-0-1 Yea, I'm over it You can't think that I'd just slowly fade away You can put me on the sidewalk with a suitcase I know it's over and it sounds a bit cliche But I want you back so bad Leave the pieces where they lay I pray for your return There's no sight I'm sleeping with my one eye open Just in case you might And though nothing ever works, it's just a waste of time I can't seem to get it right Heartbreak on the 1-0-1 Everybody's watching, come take a look Heartbreak on the 1-0-1 Everybody watch, everybody look Heartbreak on the 1-0-1 Heartbreak on the 1-0-1, heartbreak on the 1-0-1
