[Verse 1]
That morning sky gave me a look
So I left while you were sleeping, that's all it took
And I chalked a line south down the coast
Goin' where my thirst was open
For the things that I don't know
Goin' where I wasn't payin' for the hurt that I owe
[Verse 2]
One half moon sleeping by the creeks
And a woman put me under
Her barn roof for a week
I knew her voice before she spake
I saw a grave dug by a preacher
Just to see what it would make
[Chorus]
So hold high how faint your reasons
(Boy, you'll never get on)
Don't you forget you come from nothing
(Boy you'll never get on)
That wind is calling my name
And I won't wait
Or I'll never get on
[Verse 3]
It's not hard to live like a ghost
I just haunt all that I've wanted
And leave what I don't
I dreamt a trail up to the sky
And my brothers built propellers
Just to see how far they'd fly
That morning sky gave me a look
So I left while you were sleeping, that's all it took
And I chalked a line south down the coast
Goin' where my thirst was open
For the things that I don't know
Goin' where I wasn't payin' for the hurt that I owe
[Verse 2]
One half moon sleeping by the creeks
And a woman put me under
Her barn roof for a week
I knew her voice before she spake
I saw a grave dug by a preacher
Just to see what it would make
[Chorus]
So hold high how faint your reasons
(Boy, you'll never get on)
Don't you forget you come from nothing
(Boy you'll never get on)
That wind is calling my name
And I won't wait
Or I'll never get on
[Verse 3]
It's not hard to live like a ghost
I just haunt all that I've wanted
And leave what I don't
I dreamt a trail up to the sky
And my brothers built propellers
Just to see how far they'd fly
