Built on a Burial Ground Lyrics by The Travis Waltons

Separation Season

2015

I've got a fist full of coins that I'm cashing at convenience stores
You couldn't love me back
I couldn't love you more
And oh now the long nights aren't fun

You were surrounded by so many dreamy men
I was so surprised when you turned on me then
I was so tired
I was vicious
A slob
And I was bound to undo what we done

You were with your friends out on the town
I was chucking vodka tonics down
I was in hospital
I was strung out on a drip in bed
You were always on the verge of tears
And I was raging really hard for years
I was insufferable
I was in kind of a state back then

I had you put up on a pedestal
Loved for a minute
I called it a miracle
Our whole lives right ahead of us
Still neither one of us broken or cynical
I had you put up on a pedestal
Loved for a minute
I called it a miracle
Our whole lives right ahead of us
Still neither one of us broken or cynical

You were with your friends out on the town
I was chucking vodka tonics down
I was in hospital
I was strung out on a drip in bed
You were always on the verge of tears
And I was raging really hard for years
I was insufferable
I was in kind of a
I was insufferable
I was in kind of a state back then
