*i wrote a song again. and again.
​music & instrumental by Nathan Hall

Flowers all are falling now
bowing in the sun
There is nothing holding back
you from coming undone
Wonder where those trains have gone
wish they’d wait for me
Coal’s what keeps the streetlights on
sunsets burn for free

Sleep is like your leaving back
shadows at my feet
Faster goes the day that’s done
all that’s bitter is sweet
Skyline’s bleeding honey and
no one seems alarmed
I would like to bottle some
light in this train yard

Beauty hurts to look straight at
I don’t close my eyes
When the stars come pouring out
I’ll play seek and find
Nighttime slowly swallows this
place I’ll look for you
Waiting for the dark to come
ain’t so bad with two

Will you come and grant me
one last quiet dance?
Mountains curve their backs to rest
in this sleepy land
All is still and hushed to see
what will happen now
Whistles sigh and call your name
can you hear that sound?

Playing pups are tumbling
by the dusty tracks
Train cars rumble through the town
wish you could see that
Don’t know what the night’ll bring
maybe dreams of you
Morning’s not so far away
it could still come true

Flowers all are falling now
bowing in the sun
There is nothing holding back
you from coming undone
Wonder where those trains have gone
wish they’d wait for me
Coal’s what keeps the streetlights on
sunsets burn for free
