The Leanin' Tree

from A Less than Perfect Peach by Blue Genes

/

lyrics

walkin bare foot under the bar, o i never thought i could get so far away in a day that i decided to stay
n bad news floats down the avenue, and it creeps in like the blues, standin still while the world moves
and day time toilin in the sunshine, o i'm diggin a hole, to bury a deceased story
and message lay waitin in that soil and they packaged bought and sold just as frantically as oil

shhhhh

frosty breath seeps out
chalk another one to the count
and time is closin in
i can hear it now

tick tock

and reality seems to be the mean of our memories, they're collected irrelevant the filter and disputed still
and a reputable source in a headline for the dead says souls for sale, hallelujah, it's a rollback
and the broken heart cures that i found foreshadow the disease that's probably gunna take me
but please make meanin out of a tree that's carefully leanin', yet to the soil clingin and still greenin in the spring
