I cut corners on the carpets now
I danced quarters on the windowsill
The summer left me to a different fate
This drastic urge will take some time to find its weight

I run head on into traffic in the afternoon
I log the longest miles alone at night inside my room
Where all directions lead right back to me
All my ambitions swim like driftwood through my dark sea of sleep

And it'll take some time, yeah, it'll take some time
But the dawn will come, yeah, the tide will rise

Her eyes swelled up in the bar's soft lights
I drank and watched her laugh and then we sang out loud in the dying streets
And I was so drunk my heart floated like a feather in the breeze
I got so high off all the blinking lights, the colors painted in the night

Midsummer Classic blue and gold, our City casts it's shadow.
The kettle boil heads for a roll, Sundowning's never getting old
And underneath this crooked moon I can smell the night begin to bloom
The Northern wind will change again and my geography will bend
Back and forth across the map until I reach the end
Back and forth across the map until I reach the end

And it'll take some time, yeah, it'll take some time
But the dawn will come, yeah, the tide will rise
