Johnny Colt Lyrics by Gus Englehorn

Death & Transfiguration

0

Johnny Colt's arms rest folded tight across his chest lips blue and he doesn't move
Another one gone last night who didn't put up much a fight
Well that's the price you pay for being cool
And everyone that knew him they only thought they knew him
But no one really ever had a clue
So Johnny Colt's arms rest folded tight across his chest lips blue and he doesn't move
He crawled out of his own skin
Said he been in there for a long time
Said he was so glad
Just the see the sun
Johnny Colt's arms rest folded tight across his chest lips blue and he doesn't move
Another one gone last night who didn't put up much a fight
No matter what nobody is immune
And everyone that knew him they only thought they knew him
But he was only ever passing through
Johnny Colt's arms rest folded tight across his chest lips blue and he doesn't move
He crawled out of his own skin
Said he been in there for a long time
Said he was so glad
Just to see the sun he said
Everywhere I'll hear the sound
Of rotten peaches
Rotting on the ground
I sit and stare at them all afternoon
The constellation forms a question, an idea of heaven
Just to see the sun
Just to see the sun
Just to see the sun
