Jacksonville Skyline |
| Well the banks of the river run through my hometown |
| Born on the dirt roads, and I scraped my knees |
| Well they paved the roads eventually |
| With neon signs and car dealerships and diners |
| The soldiers fill the hotels on the weekends |
| I saw the pretty women as I walked through town |
| I moved away soon as I turned sixteen |
| Figured I was old enough to go and work a job |
| Well I floated down main street. |
| Pools of carlights |
| Overcame me wishin' I was still back home |
| Jacksonville’s a city with a hopeless streetlight |
| Seems like you’re lucky if it ever changes red to green |
| I was born in an abundance of inherited sadness |
| With 50 cent picture frames bought at a five and dime |
| I ended up a soldier on the weekend |
| Looking for a vacancy I wasn’t able to find |
| Somewhere the night sky hangs like a blanket |
| Shoot it with my capgun just to make it Seem like stars |
