Blood & Oil 04:46
I make the schedule in my mind to make the trains run on time if they're late by the time that they've arrived i've drowned in a sea of salt and lime til the black tides rise the field is dry as the glass when they arrive til we feel black rain the blood's been drained and the oil's taken it's place red tar leaks in my hair with positrons in for repair i don't expect anyone to take care so when help comes it's all amber and clear when we're neck deep in black water the last thing left to try is flush the hard drive halfway drowned wait for rings orange and white i'm trying not to shut down but something's broke inside and the sheep i've counted up til now have been glowing blue light

I remember neighbors over the hill at the grill, for the birth I wondered if you'd hear the sand, through the land, through the earth With your neighbors the ants A horse watches over, it reaches out for the oil in the soil where you lay It goes a black mile down, through the ground, to the place Where you'll never be found Never be found, always the sound I remember when the ants and the cans dragged me down Down through the sand leaving the can I remember when we blacked out with the old man's old man Good times with the famine folks the kids out on their own I found time to visit you in your new home Always with a whirring drain The dirt milk in a dirt shake The waters were rising With a black horse in the dirt rain I've seen the middle of the night Memories left behind The neighbors were laughing And the breeze rushed through my mind I've seen the middle of the day memories they've replaced Everytime there's something new there to explain
