South San Gabriel — This Rookie Runs lyrics

Lyrics

This rookie runs in the dead of night
Mastering absence and …
The song/call from within, the cicadas sighs
Of directionless blisses and my privatest cries
Between … time
… tell myself I’m right, … right
The voices away and the cardinal’s song
Emotional lashings, the fighting is gone
And dawn she awaits me, and I will move on
Tell me I’m free, tell me I’m strong
Between … time
… tell myself I’m right, … right
The sun soaks the days 'til possum acts
He ain’t the ace here, he ain’t the jacks
He’s just a rat in expanded clothes
On a purposeless mission, a bastard I know
Between … time
… tell myself I’m right, … right
