Song for Kelly Huckaby W/ Lyrics

Photographs of the best time you had
Windows smudged by the speed
Leaving home with our bags from Iron Street
As morning turned into California
And smoke trailed from the butt of my cigarette
Our glass house, it threw rocks at all those it passed

Waking up to the sound of 5 AM to take my turn at the wheel
Climbed up Shasta, oh, how the engine ached
As the sun tortured California
And old alleys turned deep at the heart of me
Murals of heroes defacing the blank concrete

Vision tunneled, Mission Street, hunger beat
Lodged out as the engine wheezed
Still moving regardless of stable ground
And this stable ground

Photographs of the best time you had
Windows smugded by the speed
Leaving home with our bags from Iron Street
As morning turned into California

  • bad quality -.-

  • @TaschentuchCD , sorry if it sounds bad. I own the cd so it was a direct copy and I tried to make the quality as best as possible. It sounds alright through my speakers, so it could be really dependent on that.

  • what's the album?

  • @TheBuickSixes , it's "you can play these songs with chords." It was technically the first demo they ever put out together, with a lot of songs appearing in reworked forms on "something about airplanes."

see all

  • I love this song!

  • Beautiful song.

    

  • @DistrictSet It sounds great. :D

  • i think one needs a band and recording equipment. i have a guitar, anyone in paraguay?

  • im gonna learn how to play this song now

  • this is freaking amazing

  • Decent quality, but I do enjoy the Forbidden Love E.P. ver. better.

  • @TaschentuchCD es ist doch klar, dass es sich nicht gerade gut anhört, wenn man etwas vom Lautsprecher direkt aufnimmt. Das Lied kann die beste Qualität haben und die Lautsprecher auch, aber wenn zB das Mikro schlecht ist, bringt beides nichts. Keine Ahnung wieso du diesen Punkt "übersehen" hast, aber ich finde es auch ziemlich fragwürdig, jemandem, der offensichtlich kein Deutsch spricht, auf Deutsch zu antworten und dann zu sagen, er wäre kleinkariert, weil er deine Antwort übersetzen muss.

  • One of the best songs I've heard, and definitely one of the best dcfc ever released.

  • I expected the sound quality to be bad but nope, it's actually quite good.
