The light of the western sky
Is shining down on you
Did you know your dad
Was once a kid like you

I sink right into the settling
Each time i get the chance
And find myself in salty depths
I’ll never understand

So floating like a surface bent
By steady beams of light
I hide my heart in hopes my head
Will someday get it right

I rode a railroad made of bones in my sleep
I found a ladder and found nothing i could keep
Tell me i know what i chose
Show me where hours slow

Wishing for an accident
To shake my stagnancy
I know it’s wrong, but i can’t paint
A landscape i can’t see

And i’ve been lost a thousand timеs
On long and winding roads
But somehow by some backwards faith
I found my way back home

I rodе a railroad made of bones in my sleep
I climbed a ladder and found nothing i could keep
Tell me i know what i chose
Show me where hours slow

This can’t be the only way
To watch my heart break

I rode a railroad made of bones in my sleep
I climbed a ladder and found nothing i could keep
Tell me i know what i chose
(the light of the western sky is shining down on you)
Show me where hours slow
(did you know your dad was once a kid like you)
