If you make the filling, I’ll make the crust
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
I want to be a friend that you can trust
The summer’s almost over, we’re losing trust
I’ll take you to Lake Fontana
I think we should go where it’s not so loud
We can walk past the spot that I once wiped out
It’s sure that we’ll find ourselves skin to skin
YOUR MOM will say she missed me and I’m looking too thin
I’ll take you to Lake Fontana
The story’s not hard and its not so long
We learn when we’re kids what’s right and what’s wrong
My sister knew it all along
You can choke on those words, but they’ll never be song
I’ll take you to Lake Fontana
Farewell to New England and the bed we once made
I hope Julie knows it’ll all be okay
Farewell to the apple, farewell to the blade
This time I’ll be more than a phone call away

I want to do right by you
Get caught red handed
Telling the truth
I’ll find myself at Cardinal Creek
Where that nameless woman
Will put her hand on my cheek
Sixteen, I stole the lipstick that I knew I could just buy
My father wouldn’t look me in the eye
Twenty one, I loved too many people at the same damn time
For what its worth, Matthew
I wish I loved you right
I’ll try and stop my forgery
At twenty three,
I’m finally learning what that means
I think you’ve got me all wrong
I’d be lying if I said my French was coming along
When I dream I speak in tongues
Sixteen, I stole the lipstick that I knew I could just buy
My father wouldn’t look me in the eye
Twenty one, I loved too many people at the same damn time
For what its worth, Matthew
I wish I loved you right

Ugly Horses

I can’t hold a candlestick to your goddamn relationship, thats true
I can give you almost everything if I want to stay tongue tied and blue
And there’s truth to that
To almost everything
I wish I could offer you stability
And hold it on a plate
Like a gift for those who are charitable
Or those who have unwavering faith
And there’s truth to that
To almost everything
I’ll pace back and forth the floorboards
Thinking of that time
We laughed ourselves silly drinking whisky gingers with lime
And there’s truth to that
To almost everything
Maybe I’m wrong or maybe I’m cursed
I bet on ugly horses with a dollar in my purse
