lyrics

The city that sleeps at nine
and climbs silos arranged by pine the world surrounds us, empty, dinosaurs watching over the city to keep us from the bad lands, the black hills, I will wander aimlessly at midnight
just to find a dim light flashing over
a coffee shop, the only thing open in town.
I curse the tourists, the too-rists, my
dialect, this world separated from the world
the girl who does not live here, she lives in
Custer or away at the college across the state— everything is across the state, the six hour drive through vast nothingness and over the Missouri.
This city is only here for its motorcycles and
its presidential sculptures just twenty miles southwest at best, I’d never miss the milestones
set down by a dozen failed relationships I’d settled for because I wanted more simply because they
were close by, but now that I’ve seen the mountains in her eyes my heartbeat has become more rapid
than this place and this state is just another thing
we have in common.
