Sky Blue, Bad News Songtext
von Laura Stevenson

Another couple weeks go by
And the creek gets higher
I′m getting covered up in bites
The bugs will suck you dry up here

There's a notch on the tip of my tongue
No warning hiss before it spits
Can I suck it back in, all the things I′ve ever said?
And I make a cross with the nail on my thumb to stop the itch, but it persists
And I make amends to everyone that I left standing

While time's clicking like a fan and I'm sticking in my hand
And the sky is bright blue, waiting on bad news

And I make amends and fake it whеn I count the dead
And I make amеnds to everyone that I left standing


Shana says to take the year
"Shutter up, keep your head down, don′t let it strip you bare"
And maybe I′ll be better in a year
And maybe I'll deserve it then

And I make amends and fake it when I count the dead
And I make amends to everyone that I left standing

Did I shirk something?
Did I hurt someone?
Was I ever any good?
I know, I know, I know I was
Was I ungrateful?
I was, I was, I was, I was
Was I ungrateful?
I was, I was, I was, I was
I was, I was, I was, I was
I was, I was, I was, I was, I was
