makeunder – far from the sober west lyrics

Loading...

now here we are
the van canters down an uneven road
connects to ten, the rear view crying out to the sea
my daddy was made from these mountains
all lilac and scree
sacked out in the back
he earthbound and thrown

we drive in shifts, no splendor
all cut-through and gr-ss
out through that p-ss all interstate dust and sun
we stop for gas – hypnotic flatness
brother lights up a smoke
he sits outside the station
with his head in his hand
but it makes no difference

now i begin to speak faintly
hands grasping in the air for feeling
now my grip wears over the highway
and i begin to speak faintly
hands empty under the resting moon and stars
far from the sober west

before we left, utterly desperate, we ask the sage
“drive east for treatment if you want to be saved”
now i wake up from distant stillness
all direction the same
i will haul -ss, cross a thousand miles hence
but it makes no difference

now i begin to speak faintly
hands grasping in the air for feeling
now my grip wears over the highway
and i begin to speak faintly
hands empty under the resting moon and stars
far from the sober west

let me tell you one thing that is true
but its no use – i’m broken down
like a wind-blown wire woven fence
makes no difference, move in once place
break loose, but no escape
it’s no use

one day i will be earthbound too
all filled with dust, all existential
i’ll be the picture of a truncated end

it makes no difference what i say or what i do
it’s no use

but let me tell you one thing that is true
now we are lost, we are helpless
my hands empty
but i’m still breathing

the stellar’s jay, the mountain quail
they call from the edge of the earth
broken down
he, earthbound and thrown
