Meredith Bites the Earth

If you'd seen the edges of the land And stared across the blankness You'd have seen it Back towards the monster As it fell You could've been so proud of me What? Nothing OK If you'd seen it I stayed out of the searchlights Snuck around The way that we would sneak between our gardens But now I look for footprints of our friends And watch the way the light bends And the heat sinks Well if you'd seen it Meredith bites the Earth Meredith bites the Earth Meredith bites the Earth Meredith bites the Earth If you'd seen the edges of the land And pulled the curtain back now You'd have seen it Me inside its ribcage Mad as trains I took its heart between my teeth and bit down hard If you'd seen the edges of the land And stared across the blankness You'd have seen it Back towards the monster As it fell Into the devil's basin or something OK What? If you'd seen it Meredith bites the Earth Meredith bites the Earth
