lyrics

my body's been down in the water yeah
my body's been drowned with the land
my body's been fished from the bottom
begging to die in the sand
dark on the face of the deep yeah
but sometimes the winter don't end
dead earth dry land
grief don't talk but here I am

the future ain't lookin' alright no
the pastimes are looking the same
you think you can override death drive
you try being tender with pain
I close the garage door and somehow I notice no
somehow it's springtime again
freezing red falling sand
our salvation it is in hand

and I've been alive in the desert now
naked asleep in your arms
and I've been half-dead in the hospital
hearing your stories of harm
you rev yourself up for the summer now
your cylinders warm
who are you where ya from
doesn't matter cause here I come

someday I'm gonna stop waiting
here at the foot of your bed
someday I'm gonna drive southwest
til your song gets out of my head
someday's the day I get up from my grave to be
something the seasons don't know how to name
we praise we decay
secret's out so move away
