Soon to be Nothing
Words and Music: Emily Saliers Kelly Mountain Road saw a heavy load With a sagging heart and a break apart Voices in me stood as thick as thieves With no sympathy for the beggar's art I have passed these pines bout a million times Effortlessly Now I grip the wheel fear is what I feel At the slow unraveling of me (Chorus): You tell me it's temporary it's a matter of time By God don't you think I know it's in my mind It's right over left healing the then I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when Well the way I flee on my crooked feet Barn happy horse on a one-track course The I self-despise cryin' out my eyes Cause the happy trail led me to remorse But the road is long and my song is gone I blow empty in my cicada shell If I saw my choice I might find my voice But I don't know when and I just can't tell (Chorus) Deep behind my face is a safer place But old gears are hitched tight to the gate It's a daily grind waiting to unwind Till I hear that click that unlocks my fate (Chorus) |
