In The Valley Below Follow

Oh desire
call me Tennessee.
Leave me lying bare,
a mistake among the trees.
You're a liar
and you'll never let me go.
You couldn't do the math
now I'm tripping off the slope.
You gotta know where I'm coming from,
blazing on the ridge,
waiting for the sun.
The road is red and the rabbits run,
every eagle turns a blind eye
sometimes.

Who will wake me?
Don't escape me!
Who will save us now?
You're the last soul,
you're the last soul I'll ever know.

Under fire
in a colony of cheats.
A secret handshake
with a stranger like me.
I'm tired...
if you love me I can sleep.
You'll never have this soul
but the body you can keep.
You gotta know where I'm coming from,
hunger in my gut,
fire in my lungs.
Nobody there when you choose your lie,
fading over time,
shaking in the bright light.

Who will wake me?
Don't escape me!
Who will save us now?
You're the last soul,
you're the last soul I'll ever know.
