"Stuck in Here So Long"
Recorded by Matthew Sigur at Red House Studios in Lafayette
with Paul Kintzing
Originally released on "All But Gone" in 2012
lyrics
you take your time buried in the fight
like a farmer's boy chasing butterflies
it's not their fault they can fly away from here
and i'm looking down at empty hands again
as a honest boy i kept it in
full of doubts living in sin
keep the lamp on at night
fight off the thoughts
of running away to a foreign bed
again
and i know sometimes it's wrong
to be stuck in here so long
you take your time steady in the night
like an honest song chasing off daylight
it's not their fault they got their bags packed
ready at the dime
and i'm looking for a reason to stay
whoa
and i know sometimes it's wrong
to be stuck in here so long
