gathering field - alcatraz lyrics
steven and i hitch-hiking
our day off to hanover
beat up car with young girl driving
slow down and pull over
in the rear view mirror
like co-conspirators we did smile
i did not know that i was running
i saw the sunlight streaming
down on the landscape
of my alcatraz escape
from the sadness ’twas born in my soul
three years p-ssed, still i was suffering
spent that march in charlottesville
saw the ghost of thomas jefferson
sitting on my window sill
with his thin powdered hair
and his concubine there he did smile
i did not know that i was running
i saw the twilight gleaming
down on the landscape
of my alcatraz escape
from the sadness ’twas born in my soul
i went down through the labyrinth
of my falsified regret
deep in flight from the light in my soul
oh what a complicated tapestry i sewed
all that energy i wasted on my fear
all those years spent stumbling down that lonesome road
it’s not very clear
how far or how near i have come
i did not know that i was running
i see the sunlight streaming
down on the landscape…
