Carp 18 Lyrics

Her Own Weather
  by Joe Fahey
 

even the dog's beginning to catch on about you
the damage is left in the places you leave behind
how could this happen in every life that you run to?
you can't blame the world, it must be something inside you

she makes her own weather
you can't put her down for trying to make her life a little better

even the light refuses to illuminate you
the crowd stands around but that's just in their nature
some days you hurt, some days you feel the warm breeze
sometimes you wonder if the stars are as light as a feather

she makes her own weather
you can't put her down for trying to make her life a little better
she makes her own weather
if you're gonna go down, you might was well go together

pour me a tall one and show me to the nearest shelter
plaster the cracks in my heart and we'll stake out a corner
crank the victrola, look for songs with duplicate titles
lend me a rhyme and I'll owe you for the rest of the weekend

there's a dark cloud moving down
the crooked hallway
you can't get around
only end up doing things your way

she makes her own weather
you can't put her down for trying to make her life a little better
she makes her own weather
if you're gonna go down, you might was well go together
