#1
They call this the badlands baby
But it used to be bayou
The shore of an inland sea

#2
But I can hear you coming

#3
And there's a hole in the world
And the light is leaking out
Spilling like water

#4
And I can hear you coming

What new delivery is this
I saw you rise and creep across the sky
and all night as I fled
you came behind

eating all the stars, dig to find
Why the light is left
Rocks and stones, skulls and bones
Whispered stories, tales of glory
