Lyrics
Always a dollar short
a decade late
there’s a fire out on the fire escape
but this fire, it does not give and take
it consumes
Always a dollar short
a decade late
there’s a fire out on the fire escape
but this fire, it does not give and take
it consumes
And I have surveyed your present past
and all I’ve ever known of glass
it’s the thing that you might see past
and not get through
Always the first one
through the wall
Why always the first one
through the wall
gets bloody

Jenny Stockdale grew up in a cow town with one stoplight, a grange and a lot of manure spreaders. Her musical roots are deep, sometimes dark and sort of all over the place. She fits into the singer/songwriter category, but awkwardly, as her influences buckle together folk, gospel, rock and jazz.
