lyrics

Upon the window drips dew of the new day,
Slipping beneath us as we say goodbye to yesterday
So long to yesterday

The fading memories of all our younger ways
It’s awfully hard to see in this world of monochrome
With these masks and the T.V. shows

Spring is arriving,
The clouds begin to cry
Your smile awakens
From all this winter time
From all this winter time

Glowing horizon
It’s late in the evening
Shutting our eyes now
Doesn’t seem
Quite as easy
As it should be

So we sing songs to pass the time
And drink ourselves from our troubled minds
Now there’s no one else, except all of us
Can’t you hear these voices screaming for trust
Changing ways to escape our fates
Living how we want now,
Just in case,
Day by day
Day by day

Whatever you want to do, you could have a billboard with your face
Though we say we want the world, you know you wouldn’t fix a God damn thing
Before now and since then it’s changed

So we sing songs to pass the time
And drink ourselves from our troubled minds
Now there’s no one else, except all of us
Can’t you hear these voices screaming for trust
Changing ways to escape our fates
Living how we want now,
Just in case,
Day by day

Bigtree’s unique brand of “whiskey rock” features driving rhythms, powerful harmonies, and deeply rooted lyrical themes of renewal, reflection, and redemption. ... more
