When you lie at my feet
I know you wish for the mercy seat
And the child in me know how to give up
But she's hiding with her ways to (wasted) love
Is the only way to let go of our ourselves
Or to let go of someone else?
I look around the attic, the unfinished crawl space
Want for to release my scores and answers misplaced
In my blacktop mind
In my blacktop mind
In my blacktop mind
And it's an old hallicrafter radio
It's an old hallicrafter radio
(still around)
It's an old hallicrafter radio
That haunts me now
Cut your hair for you in the backyard
Mosquitos bite through my nylons
Catbirds take the tresses up for their nests
All the time I wonder if we could ever have that
But your blacktop mind
Oh your blacktop mind
In you blacktop mind
And it's an old hallicrafter radio
It's an old hallicrafter radio
(still around)
It's an old hallicrafter radio
That haunts me now
Steal the money from the vacation jar
I know that not who you really are
Have we had enough
I need some more drink in my cup
And it's an old hallicrafter radio
It's an old hallicrafter radio
(still around)
It's an old hallicrafter radio
That haunts me now
