Life Boat (Song for Carolyn Mark) Songtext
von NQ Arbuckle

Picking up the band from broken homes
Like picking up the drinks from backyard parties
This one′s fast watch for the changes
Waking up in different counties

Stick it to the early sunlit mountains
With dusty dashboard talking
Writing postcards on the wheel
About the deserts and border crossings

Don't rock the life boat baby

Following the scratch around your back
Light breaks through dirty blinds
Brushing past teeth and hair unkind
The van only starts on the second try


Standing in the spotlight without fear
What you see is what you get
Hand to mouth and eye to eye
Who knows what′s gonna happen next?

Don't rock the life boat baby

Setting up and tearing down
Moving words through dirty sheets
Let me know when you're in town
Can you get me in for free?

There′s nothing like the bright lights in your eyes
They make the shadows disappear
And it′s always the drums and the loud guitars
That make the words so hard to hear

Don't rock the life boat baby
