Leaving The Army Lyrics - Edith Frost

( Drag City Supersession album ) 

Even as the sun 

Paints the landscape with its fire 

It seems the storms they follow me 

Wherever i go 

I may perish never knowing why 

I'm thinking about 

Leaving the army 

Turning in my uniform 

As always awakened 

By the old explosions 

Just outside of my door 

Even as the stars 

Paint their icons up against the sky 

It seems that i'll be blinded 

To their travels tonight 

That's just what my life is like
