about

(Lyrics by Rob Seitz, music by Grandma Shake)

lyrics

I don't know the story of the bones buried here
but I have traced their names in stone
I don't know the branches of the rivers running here
but I have walked them and I have called them home

No matter where I go
I can't outrun my soul
So I'll move just as slow
They say you can't go home

I don't know the fingers of the roots digging here
but in the canopy of trees I have slept
I don't know who planned the walls standing here
but I have built some and there are some I've wrecked

No matter where I go
I can't outrun my soul
So I'll move just as slow
They say you can't go home

I don't know the movement of the crows roosting here
but I have heard my voice in their song
I don't know the faces of the names living here
but they claim they've known me all along

No matter where I go
I can't outrun my soul
So I'll move just as slow
They say you can't go home
and if I get lost I'll follow the crows
and if I get lost that's when I'll be home
