Water Tower

歌詞

Moving lights on an overhead map Have to be headed somewhere There's probably going to be a building burning in town When you smell smoke in the air Small hopes are seen to still be small ones When the hour grows late And a body floating in a water tower Is bound to take on weight Somebody comes bearing the standard Just when you need to see it held high You never miss your water Until you're parched, riding home from the slaughter Oracles are seen emerging From the northern mists And a body floating in a water tower Is bound at the ankles and wrists Bound at the ankles and wrists Marks in the skin From where the ropes have been digging right in Men of legend built the cities of the prairie To rise from the horizon at night Feel something bigger than me When I see them trapped in the headlight Head east, head north by northeast Get my bearings and know That a body floating in a water tower Only has one way to go Float downstream Let me float downstream Floating downstream
