strange lights in the distance
too early for the sun to rise
little bits of smoke get driven deeper
when i go to rub my eyes
and it burns out thru the morning
a blackened horse gone out to ride
dreamin of a drought i sleep with cottonmouth
i wash it down with stolen wine
somewhere down below the horizon
my home is burnin my home is gone
nothin happens for any reason
nobody really knows anyone
tires screeched against the rough road
i drove thru darkness runnin blind
back to the source back to my old stompin grounds
past ulcers bleedin on the mountainside
so pan the camera back and you'll see me standing there
so strange on my own ground
i saw the buildings' naked bones
the old post office bleedin smoke
and i set the telephone down
15 years trying to escape that bitter taste, my family name
i been gone too long u wont see me come back, take everything i was
so tell me what was it worth?
somewhere down below the horizon
my home is burnin my home is gone
nothin happens for any reason
nobody really knows anyone
letters from u
the ink is curling
it chokes the air and it stains my tongue
we are damned
we are worthless
just watch the earth fall into the sun
