Lyrics
[Title: Fuck It (The Church At the End)]
---
[banjo – soft strumming, a little off-kilter like a man finding his balance]
[Verse 1]
I had a dream I didn’t bother writing down
It faded with the coffee steam and stuck around
Like every song I started and never sang
Like every truth I buried with a silver fang
[Banjo picks up slightly – foot tap rhythm begins]
[Chorus]
Fuck it, let the sky fall in
Let the sea come claim its sin
I ain’t beggin', I ain't bendin'
If this is the church at the end, I'm attendin'
Just me, the wind, and my old banjo
Playin' tunes for the last light show
[Verse 2]
Tried to find God in the static on the AM dial
But all I heard was my old self laughin' for a while
I lit a match, watched my name go up in smoke
Kept the warmth and tossed the hope
[Bridge – spoken-sung, cracked voice, barely above a whisper]
A man can lose everything
And still walk on
It’s the end of the world
But the bar’s still open
[Chorus – stronger, almost smiling]
Fuck it, let the sky fall in
Let the sea come claim its sin
I ain’t beggin', I ain't bendin'
If this is the church at the end, I'm attendin'
Just me, the wind, and my old banjo
Playin' tunes for the last light show
[Outro – banjo slow, final chord hangs long]
If this is the end…
I’ve heard worse closin’ songs.
