susquehanna Lyrics

It was midday and the bathroom light was off

When I cut my knuckle to the bone

With your trapper, it made me too ashamed to talk

So I wrapped it tight let it heal slow

Now how's it supposed to feel learn a lesson

The scar is here to stay but im still anesthetic

Found your notebook from 30 years ago

When I see the words it feels like fantasy

Now I'm hurtin, splitting white oak in the snow

Tryna sort things on my own, cause I don't know who to be

How is it supposed to feel when things are working

It's been so long that it's gettin hard to be certain

It's been so long it feels so hard to be certain

Cause I don't know if I can do now what you did for me

On the susquehanna

Reminds me of Bushkill that day that Cody could have died

And the cyclone in the sky up where you lived

It's simple pressing lungs that got no air

Like he drained the Delaware the day we knew we weren't kids

How it supposed to feel to know a person

When the mud is so damn thick it's gettin hard to be certain

And I don't know if I can give her what you gave to me

Cause the time goes and soon enough it's a faded memory

Of a blackout and hands that brought me out and set me free

On the Susquehanna

On the Susquehanna
