On the Land Blues Songtext
von Damien Jurado

Tried my hand as a brother
Failed as a man and a friend
I know who i was then
I know who i am now
Land it rolls into water
Fools they go and follow after
Chasing the light like a sun
Burned out before they could shine
Lord take the weight i won′t need it


Salvations pain glory be
Follow me down on this road
One more hand to let go
Kindly spoke cried on your shoulder
Better a ghost than a living man
You see through i suppose
Visions of us on the land
Far out to where we were then
Gathered and stolen by storm
Waiting here till you return
