A Year in the Garden Shed Lyrics by Tigers on Trains

2009

[Verse 1: Mason Maggio]
When your father's lung is starting to fill up
And the sickness has spread to his thinning blood
Will you pull the sheets tight over your head?
It was you and God and a safe warm bed
And you thought love was a bullshit lie
'Til you saw the tears in your mother's eyes
And you spent a year in the garden shed
Just to get things straight in your fuming head
[Verse 2: Christian van Deurs]
When those white tipped waves broke against the house
And the door came loose and the dog got out
It was you and me, we were losing teeth
Saw our own ashes laid across our feet
And you drank yourself right down into hell
It was you and God in a cheap motel
And you dug your grave on the bathroom floor
And finally found what you were looking for
And you sing
Death is not a curse
It's the only thing that's keeping us alive
