Words of Jesse Gabriel
“[…] the song was originally built off of the verse guitar part, which was something I had been toying with for a while and people kept saying "is that a song you’re working on?” and I’d say “nah, not really”, and they’d respond “well it should be”. So, I decided I’d lay some...
The clouds hold
A storm over this road
You're dreaming
Or at least you've got your eyes closed
And this dormant love you've built
Inside your stubborn ways
Well it's begging now for air
Oh, the sudden breath of change
As these waves crash
Against the highway cliffs
I'm so scared they'll flood me where I sit
When the roads they change to waterways
They never carry home
You pull back
And you angle towards the window
Now the rain is crashing down
And oh my god, you're beautiful
I'm so unsated
Still I pray you'll hold back your escape
Yeah we still got time
And in my mind these bends could be steered straight
As these waves crash
Against the highway cliffs
I'm so scared they'll flood me where I sit
When the roads they change to waterways
They never carry home
Well, I'm sorry for the things I had to say
And I'm sorry I pushed your hand away from the radio
I pushed your hand away from the radio
I should have just let it go
