Disapear From Here Songtext
von Simon Joyner

There′s a candlelight vigil
For the new fallen hero
But I've gotta move along
Or I′m counting to zero
Don't get me wrong
It's not that it numbs me
I give praise to the sunrise
And thanks every evening

I knew when the radio said so long
′Cause there was static in the air
And the music was gone

But I can′t believe it's disappeared
It can′t vanish just 'cause he′s not here


Well the clouds they all dash
And they scatter as I'm writing
They crawl for their supper
And they live for the lightning
But who knows when it′s born
Or where it shall extinguish
'Cause it might be the barn
But it could be ambitious

I know I've said it once before
We′re all targets
Well that was just a metaphor

You have to be careful what you believe
When some terrified person tries to pin his fears on your sleeve

Josephine′s out walking
She's got a seed in her belly
Her husband′s a hoodlum
But she knows I am steady
And when we go rambling
It's always all or nothing
′Cause if the lawn freezes over
Then the house becomes a prison

And the rain it can't reach us
Her hands are too precious
And the sun lost its fingers
Got ′em caught in an eclipse
If the highway folds up we'll drive through the canyon
With our blueprints on horseback and those echoes in the wagon


When the farmers were deserted
And the earth cracked up
The ocean responded with just a teacup
It rained for a second
And then it was over
They looked down at their hands
And suddenly they were older

I know when the harvest has come and gone
'Cause there′s no cotton in the air
And even the weeds become brown
But I can′t wait for them to turn
I've gotta slash and I′ve gotta burn
I've gotta slash and burn

There′s a man without hope
Kicking the ground
He's waiting for something
To come and cut him down
He says the earth is too dry
But his vision is so weak
He can′t see the gold strained underneath his feet

I know when it's time to say so long
There'll be static in the air
And the music will be gone
But I′ve got enough sense between my ears
To know what remains when I disappear from here

When I disappear from here
Disappear from here
Disappear
Disappear
Disappear
