From the recording Carousel
Lyrics
Fracture of a sign
My feet don’t hit the ground
I walk the yellow line
My steps are out of place
And this is what I see
Christmas trees in the cold
A satellite so bold
it breaks the sky
The cars are on high beam
They pass me I’m a stray
Do they know my name
And this is what I see
Tail lights in my mind
Not the stopping kind
They fade to dark
(Chorus)
And I’ll wait
Yeah I’ll wait
I’ll wait
I’ll wait
For a fracture of a sign
And this ain’t home no more
The stairs can’t hold my weight
To take me where I rest
And this is what I see
All my living proof
The corners of my youth
Defined tonight
Chorus
Bridge
I hear the sound of letting go
As the windows crack, lose control
and fall to the ground
This shirt now smells of fear
I’d like to wash it out
And dress with clothes of pride
And this is what I see
Through my blurry eyes
No longer disguised
The hold on me
Chorus
For a fracture of a sign
