Williams Time traveler - Trevor Powers Horse wrangler - Bonnie Powers Horse - Bear ______ Lyrics: It was all on me. Heaven descend. Voice of a friend. I could die happy if I started again. Started again. It was all on me. Time would bend like a drunken tree. **What makes me lose my head? Love and memory. Why toss and turn in bed? Love and memory. On a lonely street, children still play. Families still eat. Father tells Eugene he’ll only meet God if the kitchen is clean. This is not on me. Time would bend like a drunken tree. ** Smile so gapped. Like a stray dog’s teeth. Blue Cadillac. In the leather seat I sat. I had the sling pulled back. Heaven is a junkyard, and I’m at home. Heaven is a junkyard, and I’m at home. Heaven is a junkyard, and it’s my home. _________ Written and performed by Trevor Powers (aka Youth Lagoon). Produced by Rodaidh McDonald and Trevor Powers.
