Where We Begin
Everything in this place is piled up around me
Everything in this place is piled up around me
And I'm buried, Oh, I'm buried
I can't see
Everyone who comes here decides never to leave
Everyone who comes here decides never to leave
And I feed them, Oh, I feed them endlessly
They bury me and I feed them endlessly
You know I'm getting older
And the roof is caving in
They'll never find me after
The next strong gust of wind
The highway doesn't come here
We're beyond the final bend
We can never win when this is where we begin
Everything you see here is older than the trees
Everything you see here is older than the trees
And the branches, oh they encroach upon my eaves
They bury me in a pile of fallen leaves
At night I walk the fence line
Where the neighbors used to mend
One morning they were gone and we never saw them again
The dirt road's taken over
Where the driveway used to end
We can never win when this is where we begin
Everything in this place is piled up around me
Everything in this place is piled up around me
And I'm buried, Oh, I'm buried
I can't see
Everyone who comes here decides never to leave
Everyone who comes here decides never to leave
And I feed them, Oh, I feed them endlessly
They bury me and I feed them endlessly
Everything in this place is piled up around me
And I'm buried, Oh, I'm buried
I can't see
Everyone who comes here decides never to leave
Everyone who comes here decides never to leave
And I feed them, Oh, I feed them endlessly
They bury me and I feed them endlessly
You know I'm getting older
And the roof is caving in
They'll never find me after
The next strong gust of wind
The highway doesn't come here
We're beyond the final bend
We can never win when this is where we begin
Everything you see here is older than the trees
Everything you see here is older than the trees
And the branches, oh they encroach upon my eaves
They bury me in a pile of fallen leaves
At night I walk the fence line
Where the neighbors used to mend
One morning they were gone and we never saw them again
The dirt road's taken over
Where the driveway used to end
We can never win when this is where we begin
Everything in this place is piled up around me
Everything in this place is piled up around me
And I'm buried, Oh, I'm buried
I can't see
Everyone who comes here decides never to leave
Everyone who comes here decides never to leave
And I feed them, Oh, I feed them endlessly
They bury me and I feed them endlessly
