lyrics

I see in you a mechanical man
Wide open skies and desert sands
And you've walked those sands and watched those skies
With restless feet and faraway eyes

Holey shoes, unholy jokes
The sound of your laugh through cigarette smoke
Garage attic kingdom, where no one ever knew
Making memories, making all the noise you wanted to

When you come home can I climb on your back again?
And I'll hold on so tight you can't breathe
I don't always know you or where you're livin'
But you're a hero and a mystery to me

Remember all the questions we used to pose?
'Bout God and video games--all the shit we didn't know
Remember I was scared with nothin' to say
Remember you told me that was okay?
That was okay

Well by now I've learned you'll make your own way
And it's a solitary song you play
But if your nights aren't warmed by thicker skin
All I'm askin's that you let me in

When you come home can I climb on your back again?
And I'll hold on so tightly you can't leave
I don't always know your or where you're livin'
But you're a hero and a mystery to me

Well you know I've heard we look the most alike
Same sense of humor and the same blood type
And I've been told I sing like you
That's probably because I try so hard to
