Freakwater - Binding Twine lyrics

Truth is a tug of war Between you and me And in the middle lies our big dark holes That can s** the dreams from a sleeping baby Some say timing is everything Burnt metal spread across a service road I'm driving towards it and I look away An instant in time plays two distinctly different ways Would you bind my memories in twine? Would you drive with me over the state line? Would be willing to do the time? Their simple messages we will use Either way there is something that you are bound to confuse Would you bind my memories in twine? Would you drive with me over the state line? Would be willing to do the time? Their simple sentences we will choose Either way there is something that you are bound to lose Each day I figure's like the day before Some days I'm content, for some I devise a cure To dim the bell I refuse to hear Its constant tolling as it rings inside of my ear Year after year And day after day And year after year And day after year
