Knock Over City - The Lake House

Found out on a Saturday
Fishing up at the lake
That you'd passed away, finally
After three years of not knowing me
Watched the sun sink into the water
A loving mother's only daughter
Remembered the panic that gripped you through your last years
Took a deep pull
Skipped my chip across the lake
Celebrate
The end of the struggle for you
And for me too
Felt the old blood come rushing back
I know that I should stay on the track but
You/I never could and I always loved

Those spring nights out here
The feel of the wind through my hair
Those spring nights out here
Whoa-oh-oh-a-oh

Sometimes these victories aren't so triumphant
Sometimes you give up just before the summit
Just to stay above ground for one more day
And I've always looked just like you
But the similarities have more to do
With all the ways we ran away
Each of us
From all our problems

And they teach you to accept
And I can't change a bit so I guess I'll accept
And expect to run away
And that's good enough for now
