Limestone 歌词

That night beating frozen fists into pastures of snow When not even she could be with me When I'd gone past exploding Into cold drifts of desolation, I sank face first Hoping to suffocate in the rage and aloneness I don't save the earth The earth saves me And countless afternoons with the city rushing past me My body was concrete, my mind the freeway But steady steady lay the lake Pounding out its rhythm I am your heartbeat, these stones are your bones I don't save the earth The earth saves me When you sell her off you make me a whore When you foul her waters you poison my blood It's not just political, it's sacrilegious I don't spit in your sanctuary, don't chop down my forest My childhood hilltop, my home below Somewhere to look down from, some way to see out I went to find limestone and an unconscious prayer To lose myself in sumac, to find the one thing that was always there I don't save the earth The earth saves me
