Smut - Sunset Hymnal Lyrics

      

Sunset Hymnal
by Smut

Crickets sing a sunset hymnal
Shotgun rings one off again
You reckon it'd be simple to calm down if it keeps happening
Buried and forgotten with the news
Can't you feel it anymore
Or is it dirt and powder under...
Listerine and baby's breath
Glasses fogging up and someone's lost track of the kids
He says he knows to give it out and when to take it back again
Like the priest sits in the graveyard holding hands with...

 In the rain
Looking up
The stars come at you
Are you there?
The spaces in between

 I see your smile in strangers
And I hеar my mother torn to tears
The creeks arе sitting empty and the laughter faded with the years
Rain is hitting cans and making songs
Listen with the door open
Or soak it in spread out against the...
Porch light beckons like a curse
That time won't rest for life or death
Coffees getting cold, the willow hangs her head and clasps her chest
A drifter by lack of self
I wonder what my family did
The pain is generations deep
This funeral's just the latest...

 In the rain
Looking up
The stars come at you
Are you there?
The spaces in between

 In the rain
Looking up
The stars come at you
Are you there?
The spaces in between

 In the rain
Looking up
The stars come at you
Are you there?
The spaces in between
