somewhere in the corner of my mind
caught behind the boundaries and the lines
are highways banked with cat tails
blue skies crossed with jet trails
both eyes are open to the breeze
the shadows sleep beneath the trees
a spider web of black wires
the silence spreads like wildfires
no one spoke
when the fever broke
the love of god’s country dissolves
dead to right
to fight the losing fight
the love of god’s country dissolves
somewhere in the corners of my face
feels like a blackboard just erased
the air is full of window panes
the river’s moving cellophane
the symbols burn into the wall
the guards are standing in the hall
half an acre to the fence
half a mind to go against
no one spoke
when the fever broke
the love of god’s country dissolves
dead to right
to fight the losing fight
the love of god’s country dissolves
there’s nowhere to go
when everyone’s lost
so i’ll stand still
stand still
where to go when everyone’s lost
so i’ll stand still
stand still
where to go when everyone’s lost
so i’ll stand still
stand still
somewhere in the corner of my mind
caught behind the boundaries and the lines
are highways banked with cat tails
blue skies crossed with jet trails
no one spoke
when the fever broke
the love of god’s country dissolves
dead to right
to fight the losing fight
the love of god’s country dissolves
the love of god’s country dissolves
the love of god’s country dissolves
