36 Crazy Fists Song For The Fisherman Lyrics

Song For The Fisherman Lyrics

There were thousands of days 

as we traveled down North Road, 

and I
remember my uncle on his last day, 

and how I would kill to shake his hand
again. 

And on goes the battle of years upon years. 

My Father's
eyes bring me solace, 

and his look of focus I try to instill. 

As
my Mother reads as an example 

of strength beyond strength, 

and
with her I became me. 

There are two girls 

with whom I've known
longer than anyone, 

and my debt to them is Lifetime. 

The
gathering of boys I rely on, 

know exactly who they are 

and I will
build their protection with bloody hands. 

Some were dealt knuckles and
some delivered kisses, 

but initially my heart was in the right place.


There are times when being engulfed by mountains 

are the only
signs of safety I know. 

And I realize I think this way out of neglection


and at the exact thought I reclaim those days of scenery. 

There
are places like the bluffs in Kasilof 

and the gravel pits in Sand Lake,


that most of us will never forget. 

Those are the things I wanted
to speak of, 

those are the things that I dream about, 

those are
the things that I will definitely die with, 

AND THIS IS THE SONG FOR THE
FISHERMAN.
