Dawn Pretend
Damien Jurado
I've been keeping me sick
Far much better than you
Here's an out, should you doubt leaving
I'll take more days with you
Singing into my mouth
When you go, lose the notes
I'm leaving
Life is brighter now you're blue
Inconvenient for a time
It's a life not shown
Past the progress grown
Then your sunlight broke
Sink while losing the land
Cut myself from your sky
Call it done and
Go enjoy leaving
Keep my words as your own
Stay gone as long you can
Not that I'd ever mind leaving
Life is brighter now you're blue
Inconvenient for a time
I once thought you brave
To defend then die
Move away from home
It's a life not shown
Past the progress grown
Then your sunlight broke
