Day of Iva

[Verse 1] Our wild rides into the basin The goat bells chime, calling the postman Cicada cries, the death of an evening Mosquito bites, exciting the blood Dilates my eyes, stop me from sleeping Flee or fight? Wake me, I’m dreaming I’m tired, I tried to function for more than a month at a time [Pre-Chorus] In the town of Gata On the Day of Iva We had a drink, a smoke Some time to talk and chew it out [Chorus] You thought I was getting there I thought I was getting there When I want to blow out It’s hard to settle me down You thought I was getting there I thought I was getting there When I’m in the sunshine My days ache and I’m no wiser [Verse 2] Days fly by, swifter the better The lightning strikes, breaking the weather Bright light dies, taking me under I apologize for the things I said when I was over The things I did when I was young Promises kept, I’m staying sober Did you break my fall? Break my fall [Pre-Chorus] In the town of Gata On the Day of Iva We had a drink, a smoke Some time to talk and chew it out [Chorus] You thought I was getting there I thought I was getting there When I want to blow out It’s hard to settle me down You thought I was getting there I thought I was getting there When I’m in the sunshine My days ache and I’m no wiser My days ache and I’m no wiser [Bridge] Cry, I never wanted this Dry up, I never wanted to fall Fuck up, then you caged me like an animal Cry, I want a shot at it Dry up, to see what stuck to the wall Fuck up, don’t want to be remembered For nothing at all For nothing at all [Chorus] Getting there I thought I was getting there When I want to blow out It’s hard to settle me down You thought I was getting there I thought I was getting there When I’m in the sunshine My days ache and I’m no wiser [Outro] Getting there I never wanted this Getting there I never wanted to fall Getting there My days ache and I’m no wiser My days ache and I’m no wiser
