lyrics

A low moan and a mouth breathe on a cold hand
No home for a proud beast in a low land
Wrapped in the darkness, wrapped in one light town

A taught line and a smile sour, say when
Hung heavy from the water tower, amen
Wrapped in the darkness, wrapped in one light town
Soaked in the silence, soaked into hallowed ground

Sons and daughters, last of kin
Can’t tell why but I’ll tell you when
Send for the highway, Settle the wind
‘cause anywhere’s better than where we been

And on the first bell we run
Oh come all you faithful
Our best days are gone
Put that in your book

Dead weight and a cold hand and an old truth
I’ll stay in the low land and I’ll hold you
Hard on the heartless, hard on the youngest one
Wait 'till the morning, wait 'till we're sure he's gone

Sons and daughters, last of kin
Can’t tell why but I’ll tell you when
Send for the highway, Settle the wind
‘cause anywhere’s better than where we been

On the first bell we run
On the first bell we run
On the first bell we run
On the first bell we run

And on the first bell we run
Oh come all you faithful
Our best days are gone
Put that in your book

And on the first bell we run
And we ain’t so gentle
And that high horse you’re ridin’
He’ll give a good look
