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 |
