Neighbor to None

I hear the cracking of the band

Can you hear it too?

It follows me like birds from town to town

I feel the hollow, ticking tock

Won't you come away

Into the ocean for awhile?

And we'll float until we're tired

And let drift away the fog of times gone by

I hear the cracking of the gun

Can you fear it too?

It hangs like a darkness in your eyes

I hear the dripping of the blood

I want to get away

Let go of my hold on passing time

And we'll float until we are tired

And let drift away the fog of times gone by
