Orions Belt by The Avett Brothers Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2018

Dead heading east to west
Taking my memories, leaving this place
Earning my heartache, holding it tight
Owning my history outright

Like mine was the best
Everybody thinks they know everyone else
Looking for healing under a ceiling
But it’s beyond Orion’s Belt

Dead in my tracks, old and tired
Real time really done a number
Toes in the sand at the edge of the sea
Mother of mothers coming for me

Like mine was the best
Everybody thinks they know everyone else
Looking for healing under a ceiling
But it’s beyond Orion’s Belt

I hear the same words leaving the mouth of my enemy
And trouble the same
I feel the words; how complicated it can get to be
Trying to land in the same place
Where can I go for a little bit of peace?
Too much racket up in D.C
Whole lot of talking, money changing hands
Little bitty men with big plans

Like theirs was the best
Everybody thinks they know everyone else
Looking for healing under a ceiling
But it’s beyond Orion’s Belt
It’s beyond Orion’s Belt
It’s beyond Orion’s Belt
