Thirty-One - Pajaro Sunrise
Lyrics by:Yuri Méndez
Composed by:Yuri Méndez
The moon's already high
When she comes back home from work
She says she's tired of trying
She often thinks of giving up
The dishes on the sink look like a scene
From a cheap noir
She used to speak her mind with me
Now she's got herself a cat
Thirty one's too early for anyone to feel like that
She looks back at the good times
Like they will never return
Staring out the window like
She once stared into the road
Wishing it could get her out to where the brighter summers go
It's a shame but she takes it in
With the same damp air this city breathes
To buy some time smoke some w**d
Go to bed and pray for sleep
The mirror says goodbye
As she leaves late for her train
The wrinkles 'round her eyes
Tell of nightmares and dead ends
Monday morning crowds resenting
Friday evening drinks
No one looks her in the eye
They're all walking in their sleep
Thirty one and somehow it feels like
Everything is done
She looks back at the good times like
They will never return
Staring at the TV
Like she once stared into the road
Wishing it could get her out
To where the brighter summers go
It's a shame but she takes it in
With the same damp air this city breathes
To buy some time smoke some w**d
Go to bed and pray for sleep
It's a shame but she takes it in
With the same damp air this city breathes
To buy some time smoke some w**d
Go to bed and pray for sleep
