Lyrics
The pull-stroke of my Japanese saw cuts a clean and honest line,
Shaving off the memory of your hand right next to mine.
Got the plans laid out on the tailgate of the Ford,
Mending with the only gospel this quiet house can afford.
[Chorus]
And the smell of Spanish Cedar is a promise in the dust,
A joinery of hope against the evidence of rust.
Gonna make this seam so perfect, you can't see where it was broke,
Just the scent of somethin' better risin' up like holy smoke.
[Verse 2]

A joinery of hope against the evidence of rust.

And your car's been gone since Tuesday... and the nights are gettin' chill.
[Outro]
Yeah, the fit's gonna be perfect.
It's gonna be a real perfect fit.
