Tricks on me

Tell a story of a life together
Every house an allegory
Like the smell of smoke it lingers on
Memory

Been a long and an uphill battle
Had to learn how to pray
Never miracles
It's only hope dowsing pain

My eyes play tricks on me
The line fades 'tween sky and sea
Miles away, the hours of heartbreak
In dark they're coming get me

Tell a story of a life together
Vigorous embrace
Well, it's about you, Dove
A little light across your face

My eyes play tricks on me
The line fades 'tween sky and sea
Miles away, the hours of heartbreak
In dark they're coming get me

Still the sound of everybody
Crackle, house in flame
And I avoid the shore 'til it calls out my name

My eyes play tricks on me
Line fades 'tween sky and sea
Miles away, the hours of heartbreak
In dark they're coming get me
