lyrics

This is not wishful thinking
I swear that I'm lying
On the edge of my bed
My hands holding my head
Rekindling hatred over and over
Forgiving all evil-doers
Just trying to remember
What I did
When I was sober

Cause this is the place I want to be
This is the place
That I choose to die in

And the sky never looked so pretty
As when it opened up and ate me
Spit me out on the street
Where I splattered like a glass of wine

I just cleaned my body
So when someone finds me
I will not be dirty
Just ugly and empty
I'm going out tonight
The stars are way too bright
They're burning up the sky
It doesn't matter
If I live or die

And if I make it home before morning
Then I will
Have made it home alive

And the lines of the highway didn't take me
Nor did the rocks
Under the bridge
I must have realized I was happy
Because I'm where I want to be
And the sky never looked so pretty
As when it opened up and ate me
Then spit me out on the street
Where I splattered like a glass of wine

Ian Miles is an independent singer-songwriter based out of Spokane, WA.
His Music has been described and "a little cool and a little weird – in a good way" and "very story-telling".
Sometimes mellow and bittersweet; a songbird at your window sill and at other times a thunderous full-throated roar of emotive stomping and hollering like a wild preacher of the end-times!
