Mike Kennerty - Telescope lyrics

[Verse 1] I guess it's way too late for half-a**ed sympathy Or to ask if there is anything you need from me That neglected Mississippi bridge is crumbling And I'm stuck in Missouri squinting to see Illinois [Verse 2] So I'm on the banks just trying To get my message through But my waves and jumps Will clearly be no help to you And any sacrifice is worthless, that's another truth A mile-long current separates the man from the boy [Chorus] So leave, put away your telescope Or at least point it upwards to the sky The close-ups of my face have to be getting old And the sun will turn the stars in a little while [Verse 3] The gasoline may be cheaper And the firework stands linger It's getting dark and I know that you can't swim But there's nothing here worth crossing for Even if you could [Chorus] So leave, put away your telescope Or at least point it upwards to the sky The close-ups of my face have to be getting old And the sun will turn the stars in a little while [Outro] So leave, pack up your riverboat Be thankful that you have something that's still afloat Maybe take the muddy back towards Murphysboro The sun will turn to stars in a little while
