Lyrics
The Greyhound got us there by noon A generation too soon Peeling paint and Spanish moss A battle long ago lost Lifetimes washed up at our feet Dessicated and bleached Memories shuffling through the streets Here's the levy we once walked When Judgement Day was just talk God has sent us down a sign Saying he has resigned We treaded water all our lives But never got close to shore Looks like we'll be swimming some more Who will notice when we're gone? We've been forgotten all along Nightfall stains the heavens red A bullet to the sun's head And like our shadows on the ground We fade away without a sound
