lyrics

There's a wreckage by the water
You can hear it at night
Smashing itself against the boat dock side
& it echoes down river, & when the farm makes no sound
I can see its shadow dancin' like no one's around
In the forest in the morning
Stoned on the isle
& I sure would like to stay like this for a while, love
But all it can be is kept alive in my dreams
& I ain't sleepin' much, & dreams ain't what they used to be for me

Come hell or high water, paradise or low tide
Amongst these field snakes I'll wander 'til it's my time in the sky
I've grown tired of this growing up, this giving in, this giving up
Go yell up at the tower that these two hands have had enough
Put a twenty on the blue team, & the rest on my sin
Wait for the three knocks, & let that ol' devil in
Ain't no cross on my chest, nor idol I fear
But I swear on this cold blowin' wind if there's a g-d he lives here

There's a wreckage by the water
You can hear it at night
Smashing itself against the boat dock side
& it echoes down river, & when the farm makes no sound
I can see its shadow dancin' like no one's around
