The Seer

James Wallace

[Verse 1]
Some bright nation built a network of roads
Taught their children law and codes
Sent them outward through the pourin' rain
And when they came home, they were strange
Now they're getting older

[Verse 2]
Check the cabin in between two rows
Underneath a pile of clothes
Is a box of letters I once wrote
To Katherine, a long time ago
I was a diferent kind of man

[Verse 3]
I might've told about the comin' end times
All that darkness, how the light
Brotherhood might save us, I don't know
I used to hear a lot of songs in my head
But I've forgot how they go

[Chorus]
Help me, I've been breathin' in
Finally, I breathe out
I'm an older man
The world is passing me by (whoo hoo)
And I'm lying on the floor
Can you hear me lord? (whoo hoo)
I've been here before

[Verse 4]
I've been wanderin' 'round town for days
Trying to fight the old malaise
Shells and antlers, I've been sleeping on
Every night to prepare for the war
Called the comin' end times

[Verse 5]
It don't come playing no calliope song
S'not a dream and then it's done
It burns like hell and lasts real long
So pull the dagger out of your arm
And go get back on the road

[Chorus]
Help me, I've been breathing in
Finally, I breathe out
An older man
The world is passing me by

[Chorus]
Help me, I've been breathing in
Finally, I breathe out
A younger man
Corporeal pain don't reach me anymore
I'm risin' from the floor
Ascendin' from the world
A lord, a lord, a lord, a lord, a lord

[Bridge: spoken interlude]
The seer
Rose above our town
Flashed through the night on the ground
Then a dog, [?], born without sight
They all [?] through the night
They stayed till the pain was all gone
Cain was there
Look, they're sailin' on

[Verse 6]
Moonlight shakin' on pariah canyon
Chase the shadows before dawn
Speak the words that bring the song
Sing them once to the void
And fall into the hole

[Outro]
'Cause someday soon, we will shed our load
Lay beneath a pile of clothes
The old white light will beam us back to the host
Till then hold my hand
Tell me I'm not a ghost
