Darkness

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sun gleams on from the edge of the world Like a big red drop of blood And it pools til its heavy enough To roll off beneath the cut Darkness wipes it away And the world goes black [Verse 2] If I can get this plate moving Ain't nothing out here to stop me Ain't no hills and no rocks I can draw a straight line easy Oh, the rains on my back And the whole world is flat [Verse 3] The wind ain't blown here in days Strange and lonely The only sign is some old man in the diner talking about rain That's only hearsay I'll believe we'll see no rain Then again, I've been stranger things Like a whole world is flat [Verse 4] We'll build a barn over yonder Plant some trees out to the south Grow some corn or some cotton Put a fence around the house We can live here forever
