Lyrics

West

Face down in the chemistry

And silent sound

I would never have gone

I would never have gone

Face down in the chemistry

And silent sound

I would never have gone

I would never have gone

This bird is old and fat

It's sold its soul

I would never have gone

I would never have gone

I would never have gone

(Chosen [?])

Between the skin and bone

Is where the west was won

I would never have gone

I would never have gone

Between the skin and bone

Is where the west was won

I would never have gone

Swallowing all the bulls

By the horns

I would never have gone

I would never have gone

I would never have gone

(Honey, this will be your future)

Honey, this will be the future

You should care enough

To carve your heart into a tree

Initial it with someone special

Honey, this will be the future

You should care enough

To carve your heart into a tree

Initial it with someone

Honey, this will be the future

You should care enough

To carve your heart into a tree

Initial it with someone special

Someone special
