Earthbound
It doesn’t need a reason / It burrows inside / Little red cuts / Little red scars / Skull and bones / Hoisted high / Ship’s coming in / At the edge of the sky / Earthbound / That stricken bird / Falling to earth / Burnt it’s feathers / The poor thing’s cursed / The whisky comes out / The spirits all drink / Drink to the dust / The copper and the tin / Earthbound / The bottom of the world / The wants and the worms / Long for the heavens / Bound by the earth / Broken angels / Stain glass wings / Tiny shards / Stolen by the wind / Earthbound
But the rats are still the kings here, underneath it all
You can dance in the gutters, but never break down the walls
Earthbound
