Palouse 509

Palouse bends and cracks just like my spine
I pay neither not much mind
As you flash before my eyes

In the skyline
Tracing your last flight
Down to crosses on the sides
Marking shadows in fog lines

Forty on the interstate again
We head

Thankless jobs we know will never end
So instead

I've seen where you been from
Chasing at the sun
You're not the first assured
That it had to be done

Curses often said
Love is for the dead
Now you know, know

I've seen where you been from
Chasing at the sun
You're not the first assured
That it had to be done

Curses often said
Love is for the dead
Now you know, know

And that's a drugged up, fucked up
Hell of a scene
Now ain't it Mr. Green

Talkin bout a drugged up, fucked up
Hell of a scene

Once had flown
Left of home
Tried to climb above what's behind
Master whipping harder the drive
Till the feathers singed at the tips
Fell in wax covered drips
Then the body turned to remains
Blood staining sunlight red as it hangs

Chunks of metal twisting pedals to a vine
Climbing higher towards the sky

Green had said lost a brother just like mine
Crossing wrong over the line

Forty on the interstate again
We head

Thankless jobs we know will never end
So instead

I've seen where you been from
Chasing at the sun
You're not the first assured
That it had to be done

Curses often said
Love is for the dead
Now you know, know

I've seen where you been from
Chasing at the sun
You're not the first assured
That it had to be done

Curses often said
Love is for the dead
Now you know, know
