The ground will open up Walk inside it The beauty filled me up You can’t deny it We drive the open road like we own it Oh, we’re on the run Oh, what we’ve become Where the cold wind blows There’s some thing in the light upon the snow There’s beauty in the way that midnight glows Another universe you’ve always known I’m suddenly aware we’re all alone So far away but it feels like home Where the cold wind blows We walk the narrow streets In the half light We sway to broken beats breaking midnight We drive the open road Hold the wheel tight Oh, we’re on the run Oh, what we’ve become I can feel it in my soul In the infancy of all There is room to breathe in all this light We can see the birth of time As the continents collide And it shakes the ground of the only life I’ve known We’re on the run What we’ve become

Jimmy Brown Made of stone Charlie Clown No way home Bring on the dancing horses Headless and all alone Shiver and say the words Of every lie you've heard First I'm gonna make it Then I'm gonna break it Till it falls apart Hating all the faking And shaking while I'm breaking Your brittle heart Billy stands All alone Sinking sand Skin and bone Bring on the dancing horses Wherever they may roam Shiver and say the words Of every lie you've heard First I'm gonna make it Then I'm gonna break it Till it falls apart Hating all the faking And shaking while I'm breaking Your brittle heart Brittle heart Brittle heart Brittle heart And my little heart Goes Jimmy Brown Made of stone Charlie Clown No way home Bring on the headless horses Wherever they may roam Shiver and say the words Of every lie you've heard First I'm gonna make it Then I'm gonna break it Till it falls apart Hating all the faking And shaking while you're breaking My brittle heart Brittle heart Brittle heart And our little heart Goes Bring on the new messiah Wherever he may roam

Stare 03:27
I see you lying there Light skin and light brown hair And under the eye lids Blue eyes exist there With nothing but melting stares So why don't you wake up Don't put on your makeup I'd touch you like this for so so long For so so long Nothing can wear me down Blue sky now wears a crown And under my thick skin The darkness when I've been down Has nothing to do but drown

You can’t say a thing, they won’t let you speak Only offer a smile or the curtain gets weak And you can’t say a word to the family back home Better pull back that stick because you’re coming in low And oh, you’ll fly Through a clear and endless sky But all you’ll find is a cold and lonely life The cold and lonely lives of blackbird spies You can’t see a thing in the valley below Not a soul on the ground, not a footprint in snow There’s a radio call bring your baby back home Give a wave with the wings as you’re coming in low You’re so high there’s just sky to see A thin blue line of fantasy Down below we hold you in our dreams You’re so high there’s no time to fear In a thin blue line of atmosphere Down below we hold you in our dreams Though a vapor trail is all we’ll ever see And oh, you’ll fly Through a clear and endless sky But all you’ll find is a cold and lonely life The cold and lonely lives of blackbird spies

The ground will open up Walk inside it The beauty filled me up You can’t deny it We drive the open road like we own it Oh, we’re on the run Oh, what we’ve become Where the cold wind blows There’s some thing in the light upon the snow There’s beauty in the way that midnight glows Another universe you’ve always known I’m suddenly aware we’re all alone So far away but it feels like home Where the cold wind blows We walk the narrow streets In the half light We sway to broken beats breaking midnight We drive the open road Hold the wheel tight Oh, we’re on the run Oh, what we’ve become I can feel it in my soul In the infancy of all There is room to breathe in all this light We can see the birth of time As the continents collide And it shakes the ground of the only life I’ve known We’re on the run What we’ve become
