On a rising bubble, surface thin
The skylight is the limit
Shaving off the stubble
To see my skin
More pale than I’d admit
Boots pound grass to rubble
From a muddy high-rise
I look right and then stage right
The more I struggle
The more I give in, two guitars
Double bass, double mandolin
My pounding feet have been waiting to fall
Think I should take some time away from it all
I stand apart from the crowd, double-fisting coffee and beer
Bluegrass you’re making me tear
I’m finally seeing things clear
While I’m double-fisting coffee and beer
