heavenly father

ever since i heard the howlin' wind

i didn't need to go where a bible went

but then you know your gifts seemed heaven-sent

just lead me to a choler

dad

that's the thing

i don't know how you house the sin

i was never sure how much of you i could let in

won't you settle down

baby

here your love has been

heavenly father

it's definitely lava

but you don't carry other names

heard about a day where it dropped the know

to go another day as we learn to close

'cause i'm a known coward in a coward wind

you turn around now and you count to ten

well

i know now

honey

that i can't pretend

heavenly father

is who's brought to his autumn

and love is left in the end

i've just been up here for goddamn years

fillin' up holes with goddamn fears

i know about it darlin'

i've been standin' here

heavenly father

is all that he offers

a safety in the end
