Grains of truth inside your humor
Grains of salt stuck in your eye
I heard the stories and the rumors
But no, I did not realize
Your life is odder than a novel
Yet more open than the great wide west
Beauty and grace could never persuade you 'cause
You're the one you'll always love the best
Grain alcohol flows to your stomach
As grainy pictures flash before your eyes
I heard the tales and could not match them
Turns out they were all fake anyway
Your life is odder than a novel
Yet more open than the great wide west
Beauty and grace could never persuade you 'cause
You're the one you'll always love the best
Come closer, closer still, and tell me
The stories of your fabled youth
Tell me not tales from when you conquered worlds
Tell me nothing but the truth
Your life is odder than a novel
Yet more open than the great wide west
Beauty and grace could never persuade you 'cause
You're the one you'll always love the best
Your life is odder than a novel
Yet more open than the great wide west
Beauty and grace could never persuade you 'cause
You're the one you'll always love the best
Thin Lear's sophisticated rock music is tempered with soaring chamber pop accents and an undeniable gift for melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 30, 2020
