Paroles de Look Long
All the way all the way all the way to NashvilleWe talked about God and the Devil
Everyone I know can sense Armageddon
We want to believe in something we’re unsettled
My grandfather had a telescope and a magnifying glass
Through the scope on starry nights we saw forever
And in the morning Florida sun I burned the grass with my magnifying glass
Look long
Look long
Look long
There’s a reason there’s a reason that they call it a Hail Mary
It’s all or nothing on a prayer
On the brink of loss we take our last shot
With my shaky faith will you still be there
My grandmother had Apollo mission glasses
Etched in red white and blue commemoration
I’m no AWOL patriot because I’ve dodged your party lines
I will always love my troubled nation this beautiful land
Look long
Look long
Look long And said will you keep the faith
I said I will I will I will
So we argue and we wrestle and we claim conviction
But we might as well be flipping coins
More would be revealed if we’d adjust the focus
On the shortest distance between two points
Because these aren’t the best of times and they’re not the worst
Just like the edge of the Earth is an illusion
God bless our brave little hearts and our inherent limitations
And our short-sighted plans and our collusion
Look long

And in the morning Florida sun I burned the grass with my magnifying glass
