lyrics

If I can’t get right with the darkness
Lemme get right with the rest
If I can’t get right with the darkness
Lemme get right with the rest

Your friends all knew when they gave you those shoes
You’d be slipping out on the ice
Waving back with a creosote laugh
Kissing the roof your life

I found God at the county fair / turning his hair into cotton candy
Waiting for somebody with teeth to care / whispering all around me: if I can’t get right

Can’t get right with the darkness
Lemme get right with the rest
If I can’t get right with the darkness
Lemme get right with the rest
If I can’t / get / right
Lemme get a ride on the restlessness

I seen lightning that can’t decide
Whether it’s just showing off
I seen snow in the mouth of a crow
Convince itself it ain’t lost

I found love on the Oregon coast / weeping in a cabin over Amy Hempel
I don't know what to do with my ghosts / I don't know where to set the candle: if I can’t get right

I seen lightning (I seen lightning!)
I seen lightning—
If I can’t get right (can’t get right!)
Can’t get right oh whoa oh (goddamn)
