River Wider - Tall Heights

The dog days of August

And the feeling of being awake

Oh my god, my whole damn world’s

Hotel walls and mind decay

How come I never got used to

The feeling of sleeping in a cage

Two long driving, too damn hungry

Tied up hound but nothing stays

Never swam a river wider, wider

Couldn’t climb a building taller

Never seen a morning rising brighter

Never tasted sweeter cellar cider

Couldn’t hold a hammer stronger

Never had a need for shining china

I sit right where I used to

My desk chair in a corner in a haze

Oh my god, my whole damn world

Is smoked out pine in a sonic blaze

I still have direction

But I’m digging in my thoughts all day

I see the devil like I used to

I hear my rhythm out of phase

Never swam a river wider, wider

Couldn’t climb a building taller

Never seen a morning rising brighter

Never tasted sweeter cellar cider

Couldn’t hold a hammer stronger

Never had a need for shining china

Never swam a river wider, wider

Couldn’t climb a building taller

Never seen a morning rising brighter

Never tasted sweeter cellar cider

Couldn’t hold a hammer stronger

Never had a need for shining china
