Clarkston Pasture Lyrics

I'd rather wear another layer

I'd rather sit in my big coat

In my cold living room

And cultivate a sore throat

Than be the only person who

Is breathing in the furnace air

I think it's safe to assume

I'd be the only person there

'Cause company is not near

And nothing's gonna bring it back

Not another cold beer

Not another night black

The blackness all around

Your young Milky Way

Swirling in the white sound

But wasn't it just yesterday?

Your warm breath in my ear

When you're the only person who

When everyone could disappear

I'd only wanna think of you

Clarkston pasture

Driving faster

Out past the last bachelor pad

My uncle had

You called me the master

Of petty sad-bastardism

But that day all in all was not so bad

That day all in all was not so bad

I'm wondering what you see

I'm wondering what you know

I wonder if you peep me

In the Christmas tree glow

The family is dwindling

And all your old furniture

Gather it as kindling

And try to raise the temperature

In your hometown starlight

Freezing in a parking lot

Cheering on a bar fight

But you know where it's always hot

Clarkston pasture

Driving faster

Out past the last bachelor pad

My uncle had

You called me the master

Of petty sad-bastardism

But that day all in all was not so bad

That day all in all was not so bad

That day all in all was not so bad

That day all in all was not so bad

That day all in all was not so bad

That day all in all was not so bad
