Point Shirley Songtext

von Rhett Miller

My friend is trapped in a shame spiral
I'm worried about my friend's survival
Waiting around on the sea to collapse
Sticking his foot in his own traps

There is no brand new story
And these stones are not a home

Point Shirley or not to be
You got to get out of
Point Shirley or not to be

My friend is trapped in a hostile world
The rutted sea is an angry girl
Who calls you up just to hear you cry
My friend's been there and so have I

There is no brand new story
And these stones are not a home

Point Shirley or not to be
You got to get out of
Point Shirley or not to be

Point Shirley or not to be
You got to get out of
Point Shirley or not to be

My friend is sleeping on a six-foot wave
There's too many of them to save
Yeah, I'm gonna wait around for the sea to get full
My friend's given in to the downward pull

There is no brand new story
And these stones are not a home

Point Shirley or not to be
You got to get out of
Point Shirley or not to be

Point Shirley or not to be
You got to get out of
Point Shirley or not to be

Point Shirley or not to be
You got to get out of
Point Shirley or not to be
