Hang A Sign
John Ralston

When I was little I got lost.
Slept in a shopping cart.
Shielding my eyes from the scene of the crime,
I bribed myself not to look back. Oh, at that.

On the high bars and I was pretending.
In my head, I knew the right ending.
Tried to stick, tried to stand, but I never could land.
Decided nothing works out anyway.

Please hang a sign from my grave when I die.
So I can remind you that finally I'm free from it all.
The voices, the stalls,
My razor sharp tongue and my paper trail heart
That never let me forgive myself.

And if I don't come home one night,
Promise you won't leave on one light.
I want to drive by, see the windows dark eyes,
Pretend that there's nobody there.

Please hang a sign from my grave when I die.
So I can remind you that finally I'm free from it all.
The voices, the stalls,
My razor sharp tongue and my paper trail heart
That never let me forgive myself.

Lyrics by John Ralston

  A Small Clearing   Avalanche   Beautiful Disarmed   Bed   Bedroom Walls   Blood Thirsty   Everything To Be Afraid Of   Fake Emergency   Fragile   Gas & Matches   Ghetto Tested   Gone Gone Gone   Haven't Missed You All My Life   Higher Road   I Believe In Ghosts   I Guess I Wasted My Summer Now   Keep Me   Lessons I and II   Love Will Come Around   Milk and Honey   No Catcher In The Rye   No One Loves You Like I Do   No One Said It Was Easy   Oh Lord   Our Favorite Record Skips   Pretty Little Heart   Secondhand Lovers   Shadows of the Summertime   Solitude And Vine   Still Your Son   The Only Evidence   This Summer   Time For Me To Ruin Everything   To Find New Ways Out Of Town   When I Was A Bandage   When We Are Cats   Where You Used To Sleep   White Spiders   Whose Heart Are You Breaking Tonight?
