Oldest Daughter Lyrics

You drift in with the wind
And use a library computer to check in
"You can't sleep at the table, ma'am, you're scaring the kids"
And the fall's getting cold
You try to catch salt air in an envelope
So you can send it home, sit by the bay alone
Sun on your skin

Another day up in flames
Another cop that knows your name (that knows your name)
These assholes always sound the same

Madelyn, I don't think that I'll see you again
Madelyn, I love you, but we both know how this ends
Madelyn, the tide is coming in

You pull out a cig
Imagine the air in your lungs as gasoline
Light the fucker up, some people get all the luck
And some gotta live
I can't find an address
Nobody seems to know where you're living at
I got you a birthday gift
And I wanna send it with pictures of my kids

Another day up in flames (day up in flames)
Another year that looks the same

Madelyn, I don't think that I'll see you again
Madelyn, I love you but we both know how this ends
Madelyn, I heard that the tide is coming in
You're lost in the gray, with two broken legs
Trying to swim

Madelyn, watch the clouds
Madelyn, empty out
Madelyn, flood the ground

Madelyn, try to sleep
Madelyn, in the steam
Madelyn, from the street

Madelyn, I don't think that I'll see you again
Madelyn, I love you but we both know how this ends
Madelyn, I heard that the tide is coming in
You're lost in the gray with two broken legs
Trying to swim
