On a Path |
Dig, dig for silver in the name of keeping the order |
Silver is nothing more than the displacement of water |
It’s a trick of the light on the face of your daughter |
The rising tide of intellect |
Your room a holy mess |
A copy of The Dispossessed |
Your room a holy mess |
You say you’ll never go home but the truth is you never left it |
At the top of the Canyon we look down at what can be created |
By vote, created by bill, created by vote |
You stand in a city that you don’t know anymore |
Spending every year bent over from the weight of the year before |
You stand in a city that you don’t know anymore |
We tried to rule the world but we couldn’t get beyond the front door |
I was a kid without a heart, my chest an empty cavity |
A hole to be filled with the multitudes around me |
So why didn’t you say, why didn’t you say so when you could see? |
We gotta call the whole thing off, get out before the drop |
We gotta call the whole thing off, get out before the drop |
I stood in a city that I don’t know anymore, no I don’t know anymore |
I stood in a city but I don’t know anymore, I don’t know anymore |
I stand in a city that I don’t know anymore |
Spending every year bent over from the weight of the year before |
Clap hands for a city that we don’t know anymore |
See the sun coming out as we walk the last mile of the lake shore |
