The Remnant - Josh Ritter.mp3

[00:11.85]I know who you are old man keep running
[00:17.10]I caught your trail as you left the pines
[00:22.38]Out into the fields where you couldn't hide nowhere
[00:27.54]Just a thin stitch up against the rising line
[00:33.48]And up through the blue
[00:34.59]I knew the stars were tumbling
[00:36.39]Up through the blue
[00:37.32]I knew the star were tumbling
[00:44.91]I know who you are old man keep running
[00:49.95]I tracked you down by the look in the eyes
[00:54.93]Of a thousand gone faces pressed against their windows
[01:00.24]Horses hiding in the willows 'til the storm passed by
[01:05.91]And a fine gray dust seemed to settle on the future
[01:08.73]A fine gray dust seemed to settle in between
[01:11.37]Your hat and the dapple of my appaloosa
[01:14.07]The only living things that
[01:15.54]I could see
[01:17.04]And up through the blue
[01:18.15]I knew that stars were tumbling
[01:19.77]Up through the blue
[01:20.73]I knew the stars were tumbling
[01:27.99]I know who you are old man keep running
[01:33.39]I walked across the bottom of the lake below
[01:38.19]Your boat and did you know that when you landed
[01:40.14]I was watching
[01:40.89]As the sky turned dark as the eyes of a foal
[01:49.17]And I'll know you by the shift of the wind in the cobwebs
[01:51.87]The sawdust swirls in the fins of the bullheads
[01:54.60]The craters that you made when you lay down dreaming
[01:57.27]Strange constellations that you gave new meaning
[01:59.70]By the teeth marks you made on bones from the ice age
[02:02.79]Then smell of the cinder burning slow in your rib cage
[02:05.64]Listen in the distance and you'll hear my shadow
[02:08.25]Footsteps soft as the tread of an echo
[02:10.95]And up through the blue
[02:12.00]I knew the stars were tumbling
[02:13.74]Up through the blue
[02:14.70]I knew the stars were tumbling
[02:43.71]And the ground will open out into a mouth below us
[02:46.53]And the mouth will open out into the empty sky
[02:49.23]And the whistle as we hurtle through the halls of onyx
[02:51.99]The only sound around us as we go by
[02:54.51]And I'll follow you out through the wells of charcoal
[02:57.42]Moonlit stones around the cones of a black hole
[03:00.00]Through the fields where grow the ever and forever
[03:02.79]The tessellated blooms with the voids at their centers
[03:05.31]Through the million rooms in a bead of luminescence
[03:07.92]The filaments on the looms of dimension
[03:10.71]The pillars of creation where they make the planets
[03:13.35]The billion tiny teeth that tear the charge from your atoms
[03:15.93]In a trillion tiny bites they'll eat the meat from the pearl
[03:18.84]And throw your soul away a cold grey little world
[03:21.45]And nothing that is hidden will be revealed
[03:24.15]And nothing that is hidden will be revealed
[03:27.12]And nothing that is hidden will be revealed
