Official audio for, ‘Maze / January Runner’ by Dan Darrah & The Rain from the 2025 LP, "There's A Place". Listen + purchase on 12" vinyl: https://dthw.sh/theresaplace
Lyrics:
The white dark highway miles
As you’re crossing bedroom towns
You reap in one painful sweep
What you never sowed
In a snow-covered caravan
The world is closing in
“So window, will you show yourself?
He often thinks about looking out”
Watch you walk on water
Stretching time to fit your mold
But still you must get old
On silent Kapuskasing roads (go alone)
The ghosts outnumber homes
So window, will you show yourself?
You often think about looking out
Cause they don’t seem to bother
They feed the snakes that gnaw and gouge
That make homes inside their mouths
Tired eyes take some comfort
There is time, there is summer
There’s a mile long veranda
Where you are
Tired eyes take some comfort
There is time, there is water
There’s a mile long veranda
Where you go
I’m a January runner
I’m a real stronger starter
With wandering eyes I get bored
Trapped under a stack of plans
Unfulfilled with open ends
Wandering eyes, I get bored
And it’s dark at her door
I often drag my dirty boots across her floor
With empty arms
I’m a January runner
I’m a real stronger starter
With wandering eyes I get bored
It seems I’m always on the run
Always writing driving songs
With wandering eyes, I get bored
