Lyrics

No small spirit, so gone, so brown
With ashen tongues to clean the dirt
Take this sad road full of me. Hate me
I'm no innocent, sweet Carona
Come on, let's go
Straw-colored sea
The cornfield swallowed the children up
Never to be seen again
About three fields back
Blue shell casings and a groundhog skull
A chipboard shack sits by the woods
I wonder who lives there. Maybe he's dead
Or maybe he's just watching us from the edge of the woods
A soft wind wound up
And the rattlin' of the dead leaves swelled to hiss
There's gotta be a hole in this
Row upon row...
The mothers went mad
And had the shack-man hung till dead
He didn't do nothing except for being alone
There's gotta be a hole in this
Row upon row...
When the rain beats down the last stalk
And the first snow melts from last year's crop
Will they find the kids when the springtime comes
And realize they just got lost?
Way back yonder where the corn was tall
Torn up dirty magazines scattered around
Covered in dirt and rain
