The Wonder Years - Palm Reader
I bought flowers from a drifter
Cut my hand on a thorn
Straight across the fate line
I'm no palm reader
But I doubt that's the sign that I was looking for
Rainy night in California
Told me he fought in the war
And I'm so desperate to do the right thing
I'm not sure what that even is anymore
He found a bus stop to weather the storm
I'm gonna stand up straight
I'm gonna clear my throat and speak out unafraid
Mom, I want you to know
I'm letting everything you taught me guide me home
Faded light from the projector
Spitting summer out on a screen
The pool we swam in caved in years ago
We filled it up with furniture and concrete
I saw right from wrong then
The lines were simple and clean
Now all the people I was taught would be heroes
Are acting like cowards, killers, and thieves
I'm loosing track of who the good guys are supposed to be
I'm gonna stand up straight
I'm gonna clear my throat and speak out unafraid
Dad, I want you to know
I'm letting everything you taught me guide me home
Coming undone at the seams
Stress fractures and muted dreams
Oh, please
Undone at the seams
Stress fractures and muted dreams
Oh, please
Undone at the seams
Stress fractures and muted dreams
Oh
I'm gonna stand up straight
I'm gonna clear my throat and speak out unafraid
Mom, I want you to know
I'm letting everything you taught me guide me home
Stand up straight
I'm gonna clear my throat and speak out unafraid
Dad, I want you to know
I'm letting everything you taught me guide me home
Cut my hand on a thorn
Straight across the fate line
I'm no palm reader
