Lost Trailers Longfall Lyrics

Longfall Lyrics

The waves are settling down, and the sun has sunk into the sand

And the
only calm this city gives is living in these ocean sounds

Well, it's not
as bad as it could be, it's just not as good as I thought it would be

You'll find out what you miss most when you're out alone on the West
Coast

In a longfall, yes, it's gonna be a longfall



I'm not
sure why I'm still here, when I left my life seemed so clear

Now my
dreams are heavy things that are muddied by reality

Cause I can't find
good pay, and there's no game days on Saturdays

Yes, the only tailgates I
see down are loading smack and crack cocaine

For a long haul, up the West
Coast in this longfall



My girl loved the price of fame, I lost her
when she changed her name

Her face used to feel so soft, 'til her agent's
doctor pulled it off

She got a new nose and cheekbones, and a bit part on
a TV show

But a home can turn to a frozen place, when the one you love's
got a stranger's face

It's a longfall, out in LA, It's a longfall. Still
no rain, and I don't feel the same



Just when I thought I'd head on
back, I saw a black haired girl on the concrete path 

She flung her hair
back with her hands, between the setting sun and a coffee stand

And in
the fading light I could barely see, when she fired up a Winston and gave it to
me

She said, "You look like someone I know"; 

I said, "I do, well,
thanks for the care, cause it shows." 



In this longfall, there's
fine folks out on the West Coast

It's just a longfall, where there's no
cold, and no one gets old

In this longfall, there's no rain, but I know
Jane will change

In this longfall, yes, I know things have got to change
