lyrics

a heavy rain is bound to fall
a lost bird needs shelter after all
sky is blue but turning gray
why does it always end this way?

dark is the shadow of the wounded night sky
a feather falling down, no hesitation
unluckily, my angels all went blind
kept apart by another lost connection
there's a hollow sound you once drowned out
his train passing through the night
it's that dream stuck in my head, that widow in her bed
restless but not resigned
my reflection tells me that i'm running out of time

a heavy rain is bound to fall
a lost bird found shelter through it all
sky is blue but turning gray
why does it always end this way?

now the lights go out on every sign in town
the full moon needs a friend for whom to light a path
you know it won't be long before the clouds come down
in the meantime, you're just looking for a laugh
but the strangest part of being alone
is that you've got no one...
to tell your jokes
to bum you smokes
to love without a doubt
if you look right now, you just might see the sun come out

i had a dream that my love was real
and in my hands i felt something only i could feel
a little break from an endless day
but it always ends this way
why does it always end this way?

"Full of wordy poetry and haunting atmospherics that recall indie storytellers like Conor Oberst and Sufjan Stevens, Andy Holmes' late-night folk music is rich with existential observations about everything from panic attacks, to the loneliness of city life." -IndyWeek
