Across the bay now Past our home towns Backlit for one last glimpse Of surging shoals and autumn browns
Stay wicked You are forgiven All are forgiven now that Alms abound in escape routes
Sunset lights the way Above my bay There’s a deeper darker torrent One mile high So if you’re feeling bold or brave now Wave bye-bye As the contrails vanish in southern skies
Above my bay At the first sign of tears They turn their heads away Yet so transfixed By the blood on the highway And the vestiges of a virile heart Are pulsing me so far away
You were desperate So you used me Don’t say your sorry’s yet cause I’ve abused most everything
Still I’m doomed And better off dead So don’t throw away just yet Those voodoo dolls darling I’m hanging on by a thread
Sunset lights the way Above my bay There’s a deeper darker torrent One mile high So if you’re feeling bold or brave now Wave bye-bye As the contrails vanish in southern skies
Above my bay
They bring it in They cut it right in front of me I’m so transfixed By the blood on my highways And the vestiges of a virile heart Are pulsing me so far away
Across the bay now Past our home towns Don’t throw away just yet Those voodoo dolls darling I’m hanging on by a thread
Sunset lights the way Above my bay There’s a deeper darker torrent One mile high So if you’re feeling bold or brave now Wave bye-bye As the contrails vanish in southern skies
