On My Honor - Gypsy Summer Lyrics
Spent a solid nightDodging sleep againA dirty garage littered withSmoke from pipes and pyramids of cansScale one more roofFor talks of friends estrangedThe heights that offer viewsOf times that earn our praiseAt times you have to diveThrough sewage in this lifeThat filthy creek whereThe purest parts resideAt times you have to diveBy filth you’ll be baptizedOh, holy nightDive until the sunriseEyes fixed on grey skiesWhile we try to find our feetA downhill run in morning airThough we always swim upstreamAsleep in the basementWith dogs that live like meIn the cold of the sounds we makeIn the warmth of loyaltyAt times you have to diveThrough sewage in this lifeThat filthy creek whereThe purest parts resideAt times you have to diveBy filth you’ll be baptizedOh, holy nightDive until the sunriseA summer for gypsiesReviving books I try to readWhen my hands stop shakingIn times when the daylight finally favors meA summer for gypsiesWhere I find my separate peaceWe left our clothes thereIn exchange for the things that we keepAt times you have to diveThrough sewage in this lifeThat filthy creek whereThe purest parts resideAt times you have to diveBy filth you’ll be baptizedOh, holy nightDive until the sunrise
