Latchkey Kid Lyrics - John Moreland

Well tonight the stars are screaming 

And I've long been learning how to let them go 

I got these old familiar feelings 

Looking back on how I got so low 

Sometimes life plays like a series of exams 

And you need someone to wash the bad blood off your hands 

Well you'll always be my favorite latchkey kid 

I'm sorry that I hurt you like I did 

There's something wrong, something missing 

Something I've seen inside my friends 

And lord, it's hard to find the vision 

Standing at the darkest of dead ends 

Won't you tell me how the story goes and goes 

When I'm too lost to tell my temples from my toes 

I've got too many pages left to turn 

To sit and wonder why that book won't burn

So here I stand, right before you 

Waiting for my turn to tow the line 

Don't let me die in California 

While I'm dragging all these rivers in my mind 

Cause I've found a love that shines into my core 

And I don't feel the need to prove myself no more 

And when I look into the mirror, now I see 

A man I never knew that I could be
