Something’s Rattling (Cowpoke)
It's always summer in this Southern state
Where I'm behind the moon floating in space
But I'm not in hiding, just trying not to be found
So when I hear my name, I never turn around
Here in the valley, they live in their cars
As they dream of fields under oceans of stars
And I'm disappearing into that grid
Where I'll live out in the open but perfectly hid
It's always summer in this Southern state
And it's a comfortable life in a beautiful place
But something's rattling somewhere inside
And it sounds like it's broken but in a place I can't find
And it only gets louder with time
