Songs: Ohia - Farewell Transmission Lyrics
The whole place is darkEvery light on this side of the townSuddenly it all went downNow we'll all be brothers of the fossil fire of the sunNow we will all be sisters of the fossil blood of the moonSomeone must have set us upNow they'll be working in the cold grey rock,in the hot mill steam... in the concreteIn the sirens and the silences nowall the great set up heartsall at once start to beatAfter tonight if you don't want us to bea secret out of the pastI will resurrect it, I'll have a good go at itI'll streak his blood across my beak and dust my feathers with his ashesI can feel his ghost breathing down my backI will try and know whatever I try,I will be gone but not foreverThe real truth about it isno one gets it rightThe real truth about it iswe're all supposed to tryThere ain't no end to the sandsI've been trying to crossThe real truth about it is my kind of life's no better offIf I've got the maps or if I'm lostThe real truth about it is there ain't no end to the desert I'll crossI've really known that all alongMama here comes midnightwith the dead moon in its jawsMust be the big star about to fallLong dark bluesWill o the wispThe big star is fallingThrough the static and distanceA farewell transmissionListen
