This Ain't a Western Lyrics

It was late last summer in the early dusk

We talked about creationism

'Til the sun was merely rust

You passed me a joint, said you were searching for the point

We stared up at the stars, we had skipped out on the bars

For all that really blows about living in the south

There may not be a place to go, but I just need you around

But this ain't a western

And there ain't no happy ending

And you will probably be knocked down to your knees

Just as your bones were mending

We were in the back room, you were cleaning up

Moonlight washing through the windows, down onto the rug

You pulled me in close, I tried to breathe through my nose

But I was choking on my tears

You were whispering in my ear

We both knew this was the last time

But I still dream of somewhere down the line

Down the line

But this ain't a western

And there ain't no happy ending

And you'll probably be knocked to your knees

Just as your bones were mending

Mmm, mmm, mmm

Mmm, mmm, mmm

Mmm, mmm, mmm

Mmm, mmm, mmm

Mmm, mmm, mmm

Mmm
