lyrics

Estacada man has to stand on the curb
A million hungry people and they all want words
I burn them all away and I fuck to the bone
If you're leaving baby then just leave me alone
If you come and stay then I want some gravy
If you come and stay then I don't want maybe
Heaven in the bass box and they income based
And they wanna know why you running in the race
And I'm crying
And I'm dreaming
Cue Portland Rain

Prolly gonna start saving bottles and cans
I'm collecting my change for a hot summer tan
I'm feeling old school like an old school man
I'm coming up to come but I'm coming less than I can
Heaven ain't no place for a Black Bullet man.
Heaven ain't no place for a Black Bullet man.
A smokey old bar and an old black van
Beating off the brakes of that salt water hag
I'm crying
Slowly dying
Cue Portland Rain

(Play that sly Brian)

If I think it's possible to give you a sign
I don't know what's left cause we all left dying
I'm sure they're thinking of new ways to make up crimes
I still remember the days of the five and dimes
A penny for your thoughts is a played out fuck
I was riding in the back of the pick up truck
And if you chew tobacco you no longer need a cup
Just swallow the black and make all the words up
I'm lying
It's all fine
Cue Portland Rain

It's a formula they cried then they all jumped in
Touching all their phones like a goddamn sin
And I still don't understand who they think will win
Automated zombies ain't no Might in Quinn
They buying all the vinyl but the records broke
Recycle all the hits and new stuff chokes.
Holy on the mountain is the words I spoke
Ain't no one blessed cause we all got soaked
It's a crying shame
Sure don't feel the same
Cue Portland rain
