Lyrics Foothills Of My Mind - John Vanderslice

Foothills Of My Mind

Fear, is there any other way
To give yourself away
My beaches have been stripped
For your apocalyptic blitz
And I surrendered to the sky
I’m in the foothills of my mind
Setting fires, shooting flares
Lost, looking for your aircraft
All those wasted afternoons
Since you occupied my room
I’m tired, I’m awake
Don’t wanna be a sovereign state
Watching the last lights fade
The stars come into play
Everything’d be okay
If I could just take my place
In the Milky Way
The scent of your sweat remains
So do my bloodstains
Can love make you cry?
Or are you more war-torn than I am?
Why are you flying out of range?
I’m in the foothills of my mind
Setting fires, shooting flares
Lost, looking for your aircraft
Watching the last lights fade
The stars come into play
Everything’d be okay
If I could just take my place
In the Milky Way
