Palm Road Songtext
von Wolf Parade

My baby woke from an awful dream
Of rotten tropics by the sea
Just up from her father′s place
Cutting through some empty space

Where trash would turn to gold
Palm Road
Palm Road
Palm Road
Palm Road

We could see it from the shore
The cities ragged burning core
Hole in the sky
And the fish get drowned
Something moving underground

The world was ending slow
On Palm Road
Palm Road
Palm Road
Palm Road


Take your lover all apart
Looking for his shipwrecked heart
But his heart could not be found
Baby, it just can't be found
′Cause they turned the lights down low
On Palm Road
Palm Road
Palm Road
Palm Road

You said
It's killing me
It's killing me
The way we go

And you said
It′s killing me
It′s killing me
The way we go

And I've been running over miles
It turns to gold
I′ve been running over miles
It turns to gold

So teach your darlings
How to dance
Tell them how
To make romance
And whisper things
They don't know
From a thousand years ago


Something began to glow

You said it′s killing me
It's killing me
It′s killing me
The way we go

You said it's killing me
It's killing me
It′s killing me
The way we go

I saw it coming
I saw it coming
