You and your shaking hands
With their future at stake
Built a beautiful stage
On this piece of rotten earth
And all the actors practiced
Day in and day out
Reciting lines and hitting marks
All while sinking down
These are not my hands
On these hospital doors
The ancient seating, the older magazines
And we waited while you fought back
While you fought back so well
Your jaw and your shaking hands
Were both clenched as we watched you
Holding back all emotion
That dared to show on your face
When you left your father’s house
“I’ll be back in seventeen years.
I won’t go far I promise,
I’ll be underneath your feet.”
These are not my hands
On these hospital doors
The ancient seating, the older magazines
And we waited while you fought back
While you fought back so well
And we waited while you fought back
While you fought back so well
We all screamed
St. Alexius, St. Alexius
Here we are
St. Alexius, St. Alexius
We all screamed
St. Alexius, St. Alexius
Come save us
Here we are
St. Alexius, St. Alexius
Come save us
Come save us

Muscle Memory

Yeah this is all muscle memory
Sure feels like we’ve been here before
Yeah this is all muscle memory
Everything’s been done before, everything’s been done before
Nerves exposed like roadkill guts
Pacing the cage like I’m meant to
Free to make the mistakes I make
That I never wanted to
Yeah this is all muscle memory
Sure feels like we’ve been here before
Yeah this is all muscle memory
Everything’s been done before, everything’s been done before
And it’s late but the sun’s coming up
And I’m never quite certain
When too late becomes too early
Either way, shut it down for now
Yeah this is all muscle memory
Sure feels like we’ve been here before
Yeah this is all muscle memory
Everything’s been done before, everything’s been done before
We don’t make the future
We just stumble into it X6
Yeah this is all muscle memory
Sure feels like we’ve been here before
Yeah this is all muscle memory
Everything’s been done before, every song’s been sung before
Everything’s been done before, every song’s been sung before

I held a candle and I let it burn
Down, down to my fingers
To prove the system works
A face built of copper
And some time well spent
Returning the favor to see the system works
Well maybe you shouldn’t go that far away
I might just need you here, I might need a break
Slipping and falling we never saw it coming
But I was optimistic as I felt it break
The lines on the road
All blur into one
A useful euphemism for how the system works
Still searching for proof
In the fossils we found
A pointed finger at how the system works
Well maybe you shouldn’t go that far away
I might just need you here, I might need a break
Slipping and falling we never saw it coming
But I was optimistic as I felt it break
Still feeling like a stranger
With no history here
A painful reminder of how the system works
These buildings spring forth
From such fertile ground
We won’t be happy until the system works
Well maybe you shouldn’t go that far away
I might just need you here, I might need a break
Slipping and falling we never saw it coming
But I was optimistic as I felt it break

In knee deep snow we were happy enough
We were happy to grow so old
May we drown in the lake, may we drown in the wake
Drown a mile from the shore
I’d be happy with you in the hills of Hollywood
And I’d be happy with you at a Days Inn in Grand Forks
I took my shots, now you take yours
I cut my teeth, now you cut yours
I paid my dues, now you pay yours
I said my piece, now you say yours
Cuz everything needs something else
To push back against
Watch the wind and the water
Watch the wind and the trees
Watch you push against me
I’d be happy with you in the hills of Hollywood
And I’d be happy with you at a Days Inn in Grand Forks
I took my shots, now you take yours
I cut my teeth, now you cut yours
I paid my dues, now you pay yours
I said my piece, now you say yours
I took my shots, now you take yours
I cut my teeth, now you cut yours
I paid my dues, now you pay yours
I said my piece, now you say yours
