Western Stars
Hitchhiked through love
Passing town to town
Love to love
Short lived
Like a gas lamp
Flickering until I burned out
Catch me now
Cuz tomorrow I’ll be gone
Wrung myself out
Soaked to the bone
This rainfall
She ain’t no joke
Your broken pieces
Fit my broken pieces
Until you threw us to the floor
Shards stabbing my feet
As I ran away
The shelter I seek
Is always so far off in the distance
But the answer is always me
I lose track of time
It’s all storms blowing through
Chasing wild horses
Thundering in the other direction
I head into the darkness
With the hope of a coming dawn
These western stars light my way
Plastered onto my neck
Like the dirty, forlorn wind
I keep blowing in
And I’ll keep persisting
Until you stop resisting
And like the winds of change
You invite me in
