prairie now isn't that a pretty word
|
rolls off the tongue like a setting sun
|
you should have heard what I heard
|
a shriek a syllable a sleight of hand
|
|
prairie now isn't that a lonely word
|
slips through the hands like a falling star
|
you should have seen what I saw
|
a mask an artifice a skillful smear
|
|
if I could pull the nerves from my skin
|
if I could pull the nerves from my skin I would
|
|
prairie now isn't that an evil word
|
trips on its feet like a slouching beast
|
surely things will change now
|
a start a plan a place to go
|
if I could pull the nerves from my skin
|
if I could pull the nerves from my skin I would
|
|
prairie now isn't that a pretty word
|
rolls off the tongue like a setting sun
|
you should have heard what I heard
|
a shriek a syllable a sleight of hand
|
|
surely things will change now
|
surely things will change now
|
surely things will change now
|
surely things will change now
