lyrics
these days are draining slowly, pouring out and running dry
with their sentiments indented onto paper stained with dye
that I'm pushing into envelopes that I know I'll never send
there are corners in this place, unscathed
that wait for me when I come home again
so when I stare down this year's jet trail,
it will lead back into you
I could stare it down forever
with familiar voices howling out my name
tearing out the roots that dug into the earth beneath my feet
I will start again with seeds in hand, kissed of luck and buried deep
and I'll haunt the trees that saw my youth
I'll haunt the streets that broke my teeth
I'll haunt the places I called home,
old shells that keep a part of me
and I stare down this year's jet trail
and it leads back into you
I could stare it down forever
but the urgency disintegrates
I'll be miles away but your hearts stay with me
with their sentiments indented onto paper stained with dye
that I'm pushing into envelopes that I know I'll never send
there are corners in this place, unscathed
that wait for me when I come home again
so when I stare down this year's jet trail,
it will lead back into you
I could stare it down forever
with familiar voices howling out my name
tearing out the roots that dug into the earth beneath my feet
I will start again with seeds in hand, kissed of luck and buried deep
and I'll haunt the trees that saw my youth
I'll haunt the streets that broke my teeth
I'll haunt the places I called home,
old shells that keep a part of me
and I stare down this year's jet trail
and it leads back into you
I could stare it down forever
but the urgency disintegrates
I'll be miles away but your hearts stay with me

Torch Song
by Radiator Hospitalsupported by 28 fans who also own “This Year's Jet Trail”
Stumbled across this great band because of Martha the band and I just love their sometimes melancholy garage-sound. Also I like the acoustic songs. I still remember seeing them live in my hometown when they were touring with Erica Freas and asked them for a setlist to have something to remember the great concert. It´s hanging on my wall since that day :)
