Tall Grass

In another lifetime, on another wavelength,

Underneath all the heartache,

Wide awake and dreaming,

Silhouettes are moving in the tall grass,

Faces in the hallway, over shoulders looking always,

Backwards in a mirror,

Forever, further, deeper in.

(Dream we’re walking in forever)

Wind is a good sign, kicking up a dust storm,

Picking up on a loose thread,

Buried in a haystack

Thinking back to when it was tall grass,

Waving in the west wind,

Under your constellation, curling inward,

Forever, further, deeper in.

Someone said it would never be over.

It’s over my head, I’ll find out when I’m older.

The older I get, the deeper it goes.

Everyone talks like they already know.

But liars get off on running their mouth,

And the more they can spread, the more they will shout.

The loudest get off on drowning you out.

But it’s all about forever.

You find, you find, In your mind,

It’s a dream we’re walking in forever.

It’ll never be over,

It’s over my head, I’ll find out when I’m older,

When I’m older.

(Dream we’re walking in forever)
