Center of Gravity Lyrics by The Brazen Youth

The Ever Dying Bristlecone Man

2016

[Verse 1]
Let me paint you a picture
It's lonely and the ground has been withered away, away
He is sixteen, and locked out of his car and he's waiting
For someone to call him home, him home
And he sits there and dreams of a world
Where the air is clear and there's freedom to roam away, away
And his parents, they still love each other
And music still finds its way back to him, to him
[Chorus]
If I was the center of gravity
Why would you let it all fall from me?
If I was the balance to everything
How could you keep me from reasoning?
[Verse 2]
And the kids play till they fall on their asses
And dogs they will run on right past us to the road again
There they go again
See your road, it whispers in vain
Can't control thy love which you name as your own, your own
[Chorus]
If I was the center of gravity
Why would you let it all fall from me?
If I was the balance to everything
How could you keep me from reasoning?
[Interlude]
[Outro]
Someday I'll jump in this car
And I'll drive to wherever you are
To meet me
To meet you
