| 21 gun salute
|
| I guess I saw it in my TV show
|
| With the look of the sun on the city-scape
|
| I caught the subway home with a belly-ache
|
| When you look in the face of my friends
|
| When I try to talk with a cloudy head
|
| I keep fucking it up, and it’s tough
|
| Maybe it’s just that I’m out of luck
|
| It all goes downhill after the rains, after the floods
|
| Only mountains retain the shape, retain the blood
|
| All the secrets you’ve kept till now, you’ll keep till the grave
|
| 21 gun salute
|
| I had to put the body to rest
|
| I guess I saw it in my fevered sleep
|
| With a cough to wake up in the morning breeze
|
| It all goes downhill after the rains, after the floods
|
| Only mountains retain the shape, retain the blood
|
| All the secrets you’ve kept till now you’ll keep till the grave
|
| All slow to face when I’m wrong enough
|
| Long shall we wait for another one
|
| It all goes downhill after the rains, after the floods
|
| Only mountains retain the shape, retain the blood
|
| And all your secrets
|
| Gone |
