lyrics

The Meteorite
Kent Agee

She can’t complain, her life’s too beautiful for that
Her home’s too big, her closet’s full, her bank account is way too fat
Her husband’s cute, and all he touches turns to gold
Except his heart, except her hand, except a world grown too cold
She wonders how she got so far away

Wasn’t there a time just yesterday she was at the Black Crows concert singing
Didn’t give a damn then who could hear happy just to be alive and now
Staring at the empty too-blue sky, feeling like her face might crack and thinking
Maybe this will be her lucky night and God will send a meteorite

The light is green, has she been sitting here too long
It might have changed, she isn’t sure, is someone shoutin, what’s gone wrong
Her hands won’t drive, she thinks of biting through the wheel
Or through her arm, or through this smile, how would it taste how would it feel
All she wants to do is drive away

Wasn’t there a time just yesterday she was at the Coldplay concert singing
Didn’t give a damn then who could hear happy just to be alive and now
Staring at the empty too-blue sky, feeling like her face might crack and thinking
Maybe this will be her lucky night and God will send a meteorite

Just one innocent disaster, one brilliant ball of flame
Out of her control, no-one has to know
Just erase and start again

Wasn’t there a time just yesterday she was at the White Stripes concert singing
Didn’t give a damn then who could hear happy just to be alive and now
Staring at the empty too-blue sky, feeling like her face might crack and thinking
Maybe this will be her lucky night and God will send a meteorite
