I took the river parkway to the county And a calmer state of mind It's quiet in the kitchen now But i remember the time My grandfather sang old army songs While his brain was going bad And i told him i was talking again With that girl i wish i had Now he's a folded flag on a piano lid In a living room where i played as a kid And i think of him, like i think of her, Every day But across the table Jeramiah looked at me straight in the face He said "you can't get stuck, No you can't stay in that negative space." So i'm living and i'm learning Let the layers burn away And i'll meet you on a park bench After months of rain I just wish the thunderstorm stayed overhead A little longer I want to get pushed around Yeah tonight i'm feeling darker
