Chesapeake

To a world we'll not remember
 When we're old and tired
 We'll be blowing on the embers of a little fire
 We were the tallest person watching in Chesapeake
 You put me on your shoulders so I could see
 ♪
 I was all covered in sound
 Ear plugs so it wasn't loud
 Swallowed up by the crowd
 Didn't know what they were singing about
 I can't hardly wait
 For someone to replace
 ♪
 It was hot in the arena
 Good men die like dogs
 My hero plays to no one, in a parking lot
 Even though there's no one around
 ♪
 He broke a leg and the house came down
 A smattering of applause
 A sliver moon and a cover song
 Oh sweet,
 Child of mine
 You're always sorry for everything,
 Never apologize
 
 Oh sweet child of mine
 Now you stand on the corner and hope you get recognized
 ♪
 I was all covered in sound
 When you asked me to turn it down
 Didn't even think it was loud
 Can you hear it now?
