Autumn And Carbine

A pile of shells and a pile of leaves

In my dreams green man looks like me

And failure falls just like autumn trees

My concrete comfort mezzanine

The smell of autumn and carbine

You'll never clean it up

I wanna let 'em all down

A letter goes out to your side

Something to mix it up

I wanna let 'em all down

The smell of autumn and carbine

They'll crack a window and let you feel the breeze

But was the juice ever really worth the squeeze?

It all looked so loud, now we don't hear a peep

A distant rainbow reverie

Now you're a pile of pills and a pile of leaves

Boss man's posthumous hit factory

He sleeps in silk sheets while you rest in peace

Culture's black eye like the girls you beat

The smell of autumn and carbine

You'll never clean it up

I wanna let 'em all down

A letter goes out to your side

Something to mix it up

I wanna let 'em all down

The smell of autumn and carbine

(Draining slowly, finally at peace)

Draining slowly, finally at peace

Draining slowly, draining slowly

Draining slowly, finally fading away

The smell of autumn and carbine

You'll never clean it up

I wanna let 'em all down

A letter goes out to your side

Something to mix it up

I wanna let 'em all down

The smell of autumn and carbine

You'll never clean it up

You'll never leave it

No matter what they say

You never mattered much anyway
