lyrics

She pulls on her cotton dress
Got to look her relative best
The Captain’s called another march
Leading in from his front yard
And everyone’s a little tired of these games
Maybe I’ll survive this, but I won’t be the same

I collect my fallen stars
The cigarettes outside the bars
My sister’s got a different plan
She'll take her work from any man
Survival’s got a strange way of tearing up your soul
Stop to blink your eyes and you’ve grown so old

Call it surrender
I won’t stay here
I want to retreat
From all these changes
Of the past few years

I think it’s time I finally see
The average man’s ahead of me
We like to think we own our fate
But I took control a moment late
The wind and dust erase the time but help me mark the days
I’ve heard God is coming soon
I wonder what he’ll say

Call it surrender
I won’t stay here
I want to retreat
From all these changes
Of the past few years

My sister, I will move away
This town will not allow me to stay
So if I don’t see you again
Will you be my long-distance friend
Or will your letters stop coming on time
Just like our fatal family withered on the vine
