Lewis Road Lyrics

On Lewis Road when the sun is almost down

When you stop looking at mountains and the green surrounds

A roadside memorial will catch your eye

Where a girl stopped living way before her prime

There's a headlight from a car that must have been there

When she had that last moment going from here to who knows where

It says that she was born in 1994

I don't mean to stop and stare but I am just in awe

Of the way the twilight hints that there's a spirit here

On the bench sits a white contented teddy bear

Was she out on a wild ride with her friends?

Or did she fall asleep at the wheel and not wake up again?

With no God in our heavens and no Holy Ghost

Can we conjure up a spirit when we lose someone so close?

There's a necklace sitting loosely on a pink crucifix

There's a photo that is fading and a candle with no wick

I think of all the troubles that she must have escaped

Mortgage anxiety and watching her weight

Counting her friends as they disappear

The endless silences and fighting her fears

As I stand in the twilight looking through this air

I can feel something stirring from this memorial here ...

With no God in our heavens and no Holy Ghost

Can we conjure up a spirit when we lose someone so close?

There's a necklace sitting loosely on a pink crucifix

There's a photo that is fading and a candle with no wick

With no God in our heavens and no Holy Ghost

Can we conjure up a spirit when we lose someone so close?

There's a necklace sitting loosely on a pink crucifix

There's a photo that is fading and a candle with no wick

We got freedom in our fingers

We got pillars, we got posts

We got bottomless pockets

We got sticky notes

We got fire in our bellies

We got parched desert throats

We all have holes in our souls

Are we all hollow scarecrows?

As the sheep graze steadily

The sun sets to the left of me

I feel that she lives on

In this moment, in this song

As the sheep graze steadily

The sun sets to the left of me

I feel that she lives on

In this moment, in this song

As the sheep graze steadily

The sun sets to the left of me

I feel that she lives on

In this moment, in this song

As the sheep graze steadily

The sun sets to the left of me

I feel that she lives on

In this moment, in this song

As the sheep graze steadily

The sun sets to the left of me

I feel that she lives on

In this moment, in this song

As the sheep graze steadily

The sun sets to the left of me

I feel that she lives on

In this moment, in this song

In this moment, in this song

In this moment, in this song

In this moment

In this moment

In this moment

In this song

In this song

In this song

In this song

In this song
