Luke Eelman - Long Time (Not a Good Time) Lyrics

Lying on the ground, watching the oak leaves fall
The rust is the first thing on my mind
I close my eyes, I can hear the mountains call
Oh, to leave all the salt behind
Why must I carry this burden of mine?
I guess it's true what they say
I'm here for a long time, and not a good time
That's how it feels anyway
I look around the square, see the knight standing guard
How I'd love to wipe clean the slate
I try to care, but it's too damn hard
These questions will just have to wait
Why must I carry this burden of mine?
I guess it's true what they say
I'm here for a long time, and not a good time
That's how it feels anyway
The disappointed looks always hurt the most
That's when I have to turn away
Experience has taught me, best if I leave first
Cause nothing good can happen if I stay
Why must I carry this burden of mine?
I guess it's true what they say
I'm here for a long time, and not a good time
That's how it feels anyway
It's just another day, same as yesterday
Waiting on some happy news
I guess I'll live to die on some other day
Not so hard when there's nothing else to lose
Why must I carry this burden of mine?
I guess it's true what they say
I'm here for a long time, and not a good time
That's how it feels anyway
I'm here for a long time, and not a good time
That's how it feels anyway
