LYRICS

Memories sing, like all the angels came back down again
Bittersweet, and slightly off of key like I remembered them
I’ve never prayed, and I lie with my unfaithfulness
But with a tired old notion that some good can still be made of this
It’s crooked to think it so, but the delusion’s calm and warm
A blanket on the weaponry when the horizon shows a storm
From the battlefield sidelines, conquered and divided
Re-up on these war tools to go fishing with the pirates

Memories sing, of summer drinks within the woods
In the winter they’re poured stronger and go down faster than they should
Man if I had known, that being drunk could be this good
I’d have started even earlier I’d have raised one with the nurse
Who delivered me at birth, miss get me something to keep me wired
It’s been a long trip out of non-exsistence and I’m tired
G-d protect, this blessed inner silence
And the silent imposition, I’ve gone fishing with the pirates

Memeories sing, of snowy pathways to the barroom
Winds slicking back my hair, market alleyway stardom
Disconnected, unrelatable, deep and broken departure
And pierce my graveyard skin we all think ourselves as martyrs
In our home of broken glass, who knows just what we were jiving
I must have left behind the dream, when I thought the sun was rising
This ghost of glory, to be my trusted tyrant
From the scene and the sirens I’ve gone fishing with the pirates
