Calexico - Bloodflow Lyrics
Her eyes are closed nowThat final breath is nearShe lets go of my handAnd I'm falling toA sea of tearsI serach for the trailThat we were both ridingLost sometime agoNow I'm stranded on the mountain's edgeAnd there's only one way backDown and down I goInto the ground where the bad seeds are sownTake route and pull me further inLong and long and longer it takesGool luck's gone and there's no more brackeJust the ground beneathThat shakes and gives waySwallowed up homeThere ain't much now I can pullNo stuntman suprisesOr Houdini that disguesesFor death defying escapeAvoid the tap on the shoulderFrom that one with the long black capeJust to see those eyes of her shineIs worth any sum or length of timeThat would fill that space where her loveOnce flowedBut the more I resistThe further and further I driftGet swept out in the riptideMy heart in me wantsTo lie 'neath the waves of sorrow and tearsSink to the bottom and linger thereThe rest of my yearsWalk among the mild sea (?) bonesOf my fathers, mothers, sisters, brothersFeel their blood flowing, theySend the soul it's way
