I'm leaving my pasture And heading for something better Go to bed with the nightfall And awake with the sun Heartbeat is slower And I only drink some Grew up with two dreamers There was smoke everywhere And as I grew real, the smoke seemed to clear Doors were always open Not just to let the sun in If you want that type of hoping It's god, drugs or running There was a death The time that came after Every single breath One heartbeat from disaster So I started singing louder than I'd done And I started digging more than just for fun And made a living out of barely succeeding Read Joan Didion and felt done with reading There's always trouble lurking and bad news will come But until that morning There are mornings to be won And the day is a burning sun And I'll quit when I'm done And I'm not a Mariner Nor am I a Captain Cast away! For our sake! Cast away! Put the past away - in it's place! Cast away! It's easy Just let go Always a pleasure No one will know
