Comet Bicycle

by You-Are

on Here's To The Great Unknowns (2019)

It's been very hard
But it's getting easier now
A long, long way down
I have fallen but climbed back again

Ever since I was a child
Ever since I was a child
I have known
A seed has been sown
For my future in your garden

I was born in a prison far
Down an old dirt road
I stole a comet bicycle
To pay back what I owed
Oh, if they let me go
I'll tell you what I'll do
I'll ride a comet bicycle
Up to the house with you

Here in some stranger's room
I watched you from the window inside
I lived and I lied
Then I died with no one mourning me

Maybe you don't read the signs
I tried to play a game with your minds
My cruel designs
Made the truth something I couldn't see

Can't wait to see you at the drive-in
Our family smiling on Easter Island
Can't wait to see you at the drive-in
Our family smiling on Easter Island
Can't wait to see you at the drive-in
Our family smiling on Easter Island
Can't wait to see you at the drive-in
Our family smiling

I was born in a prison far
Down an old dirt road
I stole a comet bicycle
To pay back what I owed
Oh, if they let me go
I'll tell you what I'll do
I'll ride a comet bicycle
Up to the house with you
I'll ride a comet bicycle
Up to the house with you

It's been very hard
But it's getting easier now
A long, long way down
I have fallen
Now I'm back again
