True Eastwood Lyrics

You knew from day one

Or maybe I should've made it known

All I see is the way through

But I'm failing at keeping everyone else

On the narrow

Was it such a great offense

Do you not feel your old ambitions

Constantly tugging at your back

Where do the sirens go

If they're laid out plainly

The fools aren't as tempted to follow

It's like they never wanted it

Like they never wanted it

Do you ever want something

So bad it clears the way

But the way ends up less bright

Read the words from liner notes

Every time that I felt overcome

By a song I heard in the early aughts

Through a couple shit amps

Old friends that I'm still learning to love

Others still tend hate my guts

From something that I said

Or maybe didn't say

Over ten years ago

Tired of failing at

Keeping this hull above

And everyone stoked

Where did our awkward years go

If you knew how close to

Calling it quits that I was

Down with all tonight's

Down with all track ones these millions of frontmen

Have ever composed

Cast a spear to all

Unbowed, and not a step behind

From every time I heard

"I'm in", "on-board", and

It seeming like a great idea at the time

We'd kill to have this one underway

But the thing I'm coming to realize

Is aspirations only

Carry us, like

Zero percent of the way

So just be like Salinger

Be married to it

We can still make something great

One day I'll learn to compromise

Flip another page to the wayside
