Living Proof |
| The night fell with bicycle bells, the dark had wooden teeth |
| Oh we broke on up to hill country, the air was thin and sweet |
| Lord, the air was thin and sweet |
| She held onto my coat that night, like a kid lost in her sleeves |
| Oh we warmed the ground, we hushed our sound |
| We slept on walking feet |
| Lord, we slept on walking feet |
| Oh darlin', pardon me |
| Can you help me remember |
| When we were all flying free |
| We were dust from our bodies |
| And we were flicker and flame, yeah we burned till the morning |
| Darlin', pardon me |
| Off in the night, you can hear 'em bright |
| The Sirens of the Sea |
| Oh and city birds and alley girls, they all just sing for free |
| Oh they all just sing for free |
| Oh darlin', pardon me |
| But do I look familiar |
| When we were just larkspur and leaves |
| We were strung through the tether |
| And we were all silver and stone |
| We were the lust of the miners |
| Darlin', pardon me |
| That sky glowed all calico like phosphor in the sea |
| To the ground we fall, she owns us all |
| Kings and boys and beast |
| Kings and boys and beast |
| Oh darlin', pardon me |
| But do I look familiar |
| When we were just flying free |
| And we burned from a freight train |
| And we were some flicker of truth in the smile of a salesman |
| And we were all buried jewels 'neath the grass in the suburbs |
| And we were all living proof |
| Oh darlin', pardon me |
