Vapour Trail (feat. Josh Ritter)

These white tufts of your vapour trail
 have sprouted and taken root
 It's like you're at the big shiny wheel
 where candyfloss is born and grows as the stick turns
 Spinning out your vapour trail
 I head north, stopping at stations
 with rainbow diesel stains
 Singing accents of teenagers
 and hills not black but green
 rolling out to sea
 as you're spinning out your vapour trail
 These people hold me and I hold them
 These people hold me and I hold them
 With these arms that reach beyond the grave
 to the lives that grew from such embrace
 I was cast as a bit player
 Throwin hollow shapes on a hollow stage
 as you're spinning out your vapour trail
 Your people hold me and I hold them
 Your people hold me and I hold them
 You underline the sky with all you've left behind
 spinning out your vapour trail
 These white tufts of your vapour trail
 have sprouted and taken root
 When thrown in at the deep end
 Friendship can be forced
 fondness not so much
 and I think we're there
