lyrics

when you came down from the hill
some fire had passed between us
the light in your flickering eyes started to die

later on there were pills
there were nuggets of life in the séance
there were tiny mites brushing by with wisdom inside

and you were always oh so young
the secrets came slowly and one by one
bringing tastes wholly and gently formed to cry

you’re crying on

where the path led there were chills
there were dark spots on the ceiling
there were cries in the deep of the night, in the heart of the tide

so roll on, rollup girl
you got to pick a past to believe it
you got to nail down a time to hold it in mind

and you are still so very young
the secrets raise up and they fall apart
shoot straight out and are quickly gone, so blind

oh, I can’t believe it
oh, I can’t believe it’s real
oh, I can’t just reach into the emptiness
hold your hand and lead you back
wipe your tears and tell you it’s alright
you’re crying on
