Lyrics
He makes his bed to hide the fact that no one's sleeping in
The sad reminder of what could have been
until the hours fall away and sunshine hides her weary face
believing only the moons sullen din
when darkness falls it's like a call that runs straight to his heart
to find them all he crawls out of the canyon in his car
and these hills is where he got his scars
just looking for the stars
along Ventura to the coast he shines like wild fire
to high to know that he's alone
Another beer another song another lonely sunrise
in side this house he calls a home
when darkness falls it's like a call that runs straight to his heart
to find them all he crawls out of the canyon in his car
and these hills is where he got his scars
Some like to see through things like fancy cars and rings
and fill life up with jest to cover up the mess the left
in some deserted corner of the sky
and I can see why cause your piece of that pie a la mode is too heavy a load
He falls through life with out a net like there was someone there
to break his fall before he lands
but unlike me he'd disagree cause he sees the whole world there
when lifts up his hands
when darkness falls it's like a call that runs straight to his heart
to find them all he crawls out of the canyon in his car
and these hills is where he got his scars
when darkness falls it's like a call and it runs straight to his heart
to find them all he crawls out of the canyon in his car
and these hills is where he got his scars
