Venus

Here I am, struggling with Venus

Caroline, at least Caroline was honest

In my April 77s

Walking down the grove

Looking for some answers

Looking for some other lost souls

Questioning the questions

We have all been asking for so long

Something's wrong

If I spoke your language

I would whisper in your ear

Take your mind over the edge and back again

Oh, if I spoke your language

I would make it crystal clear

Cross the world to stop your mind from wandering

Here I stand, wrestling with your honor

Patching up the holes in my armor

Danger running in the road

Trying to win a bet that I could find my way home

Hands tied, eyes closed

But I'm not gonna make it

Even though I've done it for so long

Something's wrong

If I spoke your language

I would whisper in your ear

Take your mind over the edge and back again

Oh, if I spoke your language

I would make it crystal clear

Cross the world to stop your mind from wandering

Caroline, I'm looking for a lifeline

Making gods, such an empty pastime

Fading, lying in the road

Staring up at Venus, couldn't make my way home

Hands tied, eyes closed

Seeing all the beauty

And things I took for granted for so long

For so long

Nothing's wrong

Nothing's wrong
