Tyler Lamberts Grave by The Mountain Goats Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Steal west across the country under moonlight soft and wet
And let the dead of night hide you from things you can't forget
Spend daylight in dark tunnels where the demons rave
One day closer every day to Tyler Lambert's grave
[Verse 2]
Shoplift when you have to, keep your visor low
And if your hunger shames you, never let them know
Feel your sadness lifting, ride it like a wave
That sets you gently down beside Tyler Lambert's grave
[Bridge]
Fall into a pattern
Never get unstuck
Anyone who can't relate
Should thank God for his luck
[Verse 3]
Young man in a yellow tie, hair gel in his hair
No context for the picture, just kind of standing there
Try to step outside the shadow of your great catastrophe
Dream all night of freedom, never wake up free
Steal west across the country under moonlight soft and wet
And let the dead of night hide you from things you can't forget
Spend daylight in dark tunnels where the demons rave
One day closer every day to Tyler Lambert's grave
[Verse 2]
Shoplift when you have to, keep your visor low
And if your hunger shames you, never let them know
Feel your sadness lifting, ride it like a wave
That sets you gently down beside Tyler Lambert's grave
[Bridge]
Fall into a pattern
Never get unstuck
Anyone who can't relate
Should thank God for his luck
[Verse 3]
Young man in a yellow tie, hair gel in his hair
No context for the picture, just kind of standing there
Try to step outside the shadow of your great catastrophe
Dream all night of freedom, never wake up free
