Virtuoso

Lyrics: Ryan Beatty/Amy Allen/Ethan Gruska Music: Ryan Beatty/Amy Allen/Ethan Gruska Producer: Ethan Gruska/Ryan Beatty Where to go, I wouldn't know I heard a call out west Gold rush rotting in a copper pot I could end up there, I guess And though I cannot hold you close Like a rose upon my chest Hell, if I don't see you anymore Doesn't mean I love you less
Two thumbs waving in the wind I've got nothing you could buy But I'll pump a little gasoline If you get me there tonight Tulane green, well, shame on me If I show up underdressed 'Cause I always wear your borrowed things Till I end up wearing less
Hey, trying to hold me down Is like holding onto rain I'm not an empty gun I'm the bullet flying away You gotta learn to leave To remember why you stay Letting go of what you hold Holds you just the same
Veteran drummer, rookie clarinets Salt the edge and suck the lime Virtuous or virtuoso Parody or paradise I close my eyes and think of you With that hammer around your chest Just because I gotta leave you here Doesn't mean I love you less
Hey, trying to hold me down Is like holding onto rain I'm not an empty gun I'm the bullet flying away You gotta learn to leave To remember why you stay Letting go of what you hold Holds you just the same
Time turns, it's turning me on The more that I miss The more that I want Time turns, it's turning me on I want you right back The moment I'm gone Time turns, it's turning me on The more that I miss The more that I want
Time turns, it's turning me on I want you right back The moment I'm gone Audio Engineer: Ethan Gruska/Will Maclellan Backing Vocals: Ryan Beatty Acoustic Guitar: Ethan Gruska Drums: Sam Kauffman-Skloff Vocals: Ryan Beatty Cello: Gabe Noel 冬不拉 : Greg Leisz Synthesizer: Benny Bock Banjo: Ethan Gruska Electric Guitar: Dylan Day/Ethan Gruska/Meg Duffy Strings: Rob Moose Mastering Engineer: Zach Pereyra Additional Production: Rob Moose Mixing Engineer: Manny Marroquin
