Brendan Abernathy - 5'9" lyrics

Artist: Brendan Abernathy

album: 5'9"


I'm 5'9" so I stand on my tip-toes
Trying to get a better glimpse of Heaven ahead
I'm getting hot, but the air's still ice-cold
I'm blinded by my breath
At the foot of my bed, there's a pod of stuffed animals –
1 of em's a Sable Sheltie named Toppy
If I see him straight
At night, he comes alive
To take the place of Skye
Woah
Can you believe in all this magic?
Our only hope
Woah
The past is gone but the future's tragic
Our only hope
3 miles ahead, there's a park in Atlanta
With a brick engraved with my name and the date
6 9 96
The day I was born to bark or fall
I spot a tank full of fish and a bottle of Coke by the Benz
Where from Row 2 of the concert
Heartbreak caught the ball
We've got faith and hope and time and gasoline
With no direction, but a one-way-ticket
Come along with me
So let's set fire to fear and flame to the peanut choir
I'm an insomniac stuck on the edge of a dream
Crammed in the shadow box in the corner
There's a Kodak still-frame of me when I'm 5'3"
With my dog of 15 years
Who decided it was time...
To leave
