lyrics

prairie prairie I could say you’re open and free ● or you’re barren ● depending on ● how I’m feeling ● city city I’ve been a young girl in you ● could say you’re a mama or a plot-line that hides the truth ● either way I didn’t mind being stuck on your train ● just the part of working hard and barely surviving ● ‘cause I tried to hold one side ● it worked sometimes ● I said I knew it all like it wasn’t a lie ● silver lines slip in and out of time ● father up there I could say you don’t give a damn ● about any prayer ● or I could say you’re just too far away and the reception is bad downstairs ● death oh death I could run from you ● run like a toddler in her daddy’s boots ● or I could stand in the mud you make while it rains ● I tried to hold one side ● it worked sometimes ● I said I knew it all like it wasn’t a lie ● silver lines slip in and out of time ● life oh life I could say I wished for more angels ● more glasses of lemonade ● but it’s all give and take ● and that’s something that none of us can evade ● ‘cause I tried to hold one side ● it worked sometimes ● I said I knew it all like it wasn’t a lie ● silver lines slip in and out of time ●
