Rodeo Lyrics by Cellogram

Cellogram EP

2018

[Intro]
Don’t look back ‘cause you’ll die in the rodeo
Don’t look back ‘cause you’ll die in the rodeo

[Refrain]
You go where the thing shines bright
Better run like hell from the life you left behind
Everything between is touch-and-go
Baby, don’t look back ‘cause you’ll die in the rodeo
Don’t look back ‘cause you’ll die in the rodeo

[Verse 1]
Well, they found me out, so we packed our clothes
And we drove to the edge on a Mexico road
And we burned the years and the stories we’ve told
And we buried their remains in a trench by the rodeo

[Verse 2]
So we found the faith to keep driving on
But the sky became larger than what we’d been running from
Fantasy builds a new desert town
From this to the edge of the shiny, real skyline
Settling down where no one knows my face or my name
All the tricks I used to hide at the game
Bury my stories in all, in the flow, the flow
You know there is more

[Refrain]
You go where the thing shines bright
Better run like hell from the life you left behind
Everything between is touch and go
Baby, don’t look back ‘cause you’ll die in the rodeo

[Verse 3]
Well, we reached the Pacific Cost
And we’re looking for the gold that we want most
But in all the years past our love ran dry
Man, I wish I’d fallen from that horse the first time
Everything we build and everything we hold
Bucks out, falls down, reaches back on the ground below
Only heartache, dust and bricks
You vow that you’ll never forget the gold rush days

[Refrain]
You go where the thing shines bright
Better run like hell from the life you left behind
Everything between is touch-and-go
Baby, don’t look back ‘cause you’ll die in the rodeo
Ooh, ooh, don’t look back ‘cause you’ll die in the rodeo
Ooh, ooh, don’t look back ‘cause you’ll die in the rodeo

[Verse 4]
Open the gate for one last ride
The only choice left is a final rewind
Prowling low, ducking memory load
Till we find a final ride down the Mexico road
But the stables are gone and the horses are stolen
And the clown took the job at the neighbour’s shop-and-go
Head in my hands and my heart on the ground
After all these miles, what am I far from?

[Bridge]
I found faith, I found sky
I found void finally
I found love, I found life
I found void finally
I found hope, I found faith
Did it mean anything?
Did it mean anything?

[Verse 5]
Where’s the sky that holds the memories between us?
Where does the falling water go, that knows my story?
Where’s the sky that holds the memories between us?
Where does the falling water go, that knows my story?

[Outro]
Don’t look back ‘cause you’ll die in the rodeo
Don’t look back ‘cause you’ll die in the rodeo
