lyrics
I heard a scream rise
and fall again
I felt the snakes move
beneath my skin
the sky was green
and the sun was black
I saw me leave
I did not come back
I was not around
I was not around, then
I drove away
with my ghost behind
I heard it say
"run but you can't hide"
while buildings burned
in the rearview mirror
I felt the heat reach
the whole way here
I was not around
I was not around, then
now
I'm trying to be found
I'm hearing every sound
I'm looking up
not down
now
now
been digging holes
off in our backyard
searching for gold
finding none so far
you watered plants
in your flower dress
if I was there
maybe I'd feel blessed
but I was not around
I was not around
I was not around, then
now
now
I'm trying to be found
I'm hearing every sound
I'm lookin up not down
even by the baying hounds
even when they soon surround
rip my throat out
I'm singing anyhow
would you like to stick around?
we can stare the devil down
you and I could paint the town
hey, on me
have another round
bought a telescope
in a junkshop
and through the lens
saw where we'd end up
someplace where pines stand
and give us shade
to be alive
even when we feel
afraid
