Downtown Start II

When I seize the day
Somethin' in the ether turns me up
When the goings get rough
You care too much about anything, for too damn long
It runs you 'round, eventually

What I become
I fail to it

And I wanna tell ya
The war that surrounds you
It's not your friend
And with that I'll slip back into the shadows again
I was where you are
What's self doubt do?

Stomp your livin' soul out 'till it's dead and gone, to that grey beyond
To a shallow grave in some park it tries to put you in

The gory details
Sent back on a rail. Better now
Spent all this time survivin' on the edge of a knife
I'll tell ya all about it in another life

The rottenness inside of me dies by the time I see you downtown

I was young and dumb and drunk with wanderlust
No, love. All love! Where I come from...
Tryin' to keep myself from floating off to the grey beyond
What else could I do?
Sail on

Sail on

Hey, yo Craig! Thank you so much!
Yeah, this place got some saints that hold it down
Right near you

Let your people know you love 'em while you can

Inspired by the life and times of Bobby Chouinard
Inspired by his Kin at the record shop
Downtown
You want more details?
I'm back off the rails
But the rottenness inside of me dies every time I see you downtown
