Zach Bryan - Towers

Play me something gently

I’m across the ocean, missing home

There are lights on sparklin’ towers

That shine dark when seen alone

Somewhere there’s a mountain

that overlooks the sea

I wonder if that mountain

has got more rock than my band and me

And I ain’t no victim to a naive boy’s dreams

But i wish you were here now

to see these damned old sparklin’ things

It’s a long road to heaven

It’s a far drop to hell

I pray we outlive this fountain

I reckon time will tell

The stronger folks keep goin

No matter where they’ve been

And there are lights on sparklin’ towers

That I’ll never see again

I am not the person that I was yesterday

And the things I’m seeing now

Will never be the same

Do you think God’s a person?

Or the blinking lights?

The reflect in her eyes while she walks these streets at night

Do you think God’s a person?

Or is he just the sound, of laughter through the walls,

In a place I haven’t found

It’s a long road to heaven

It’s a far drop to hell

I pray we out-live this fountain

I reckon only time can tell

The stronger folks keep goin’

No matter where they’ve been

There are lights on sparklin’ towers

That I’ll never see again

Do you think God’s a person?

Or is he just the sound,

Of early mornin’ creakin’

on some floors way out of town

I’m breathing in a life

And my legs are wokin’ fine

Do you think God’s a person,

Or the slowly-passing time
