I Could See It Coming

My memory of the old world fades
The parade is getting vague
Desire in motion all day
Concrete chocolate futures trade
I recall the collapse OK
We bailed, some stayed
But before we crossed on I buried our gods
In an empty old playground in the sandbox
Where I could see it coming

Now broken glass is poking the light
Strange land, new life
We're picking out the prickly ash beside
Some burned out factory
They made neon signs and
It's always already ruin
Forever unfolding ruin
You're glowing for a moment
I've seen it, I know it
This song is where I hold it
Let it ride around
Yes, I could see it coming
Yeah, I could see it coming

I wrestle with love everyday
Deep breath, it's OK
I traveled here I want to stay
I want to swim with you in all the things we make and
It's true it's already ruin
Forever unfolding ruin
Oh but this is our river
Ink spill, oil drill, salt pillar, cat litter, just turn around now
You could see it coming
Yeah, you could see it coming
Oh, and I could see it coming
