Chesapeake

To a world we'll not remember

When we're old and tired

We'll be blowing on the embers of a little fire

We were the tallest person watching in Chesapeake

You put me on your shoulders so I could see

I was all covered in sound

Ear plugs so it wasn't loud

Swallowed up by the crowd

Didn't know what they were singing about

I can't hardly wait

For someone to replace

It was hot in the arena

Good men die like dogs

My hero plays to no one, in a parking lot

Even though there's no one around

He broke a leg and the house came down

A smattering of applause

A sliver moon and a cover song

Oh sweet,

Child of mine

You're always sorry for everything,

Never apologize

Oh sweet child of mine

Now you stand on the corner and hope you get recognized

I was all covered in sound

When you asked me to turn it down

Didn't even think it was loud

Can you hear it now?
