alcatraz - gathering field lyrics

Loading...

steven and i hitch-hiking
our day off to hanover
beat up car with young girl driving
slow down and pull over

in the rear view mirror
like co-conspirators we did smile
i did not know that i was running
i saw the sunlight streaming

down on the landscape
of my alcatraz escape
from the sadness ’twas born in my soul

three years p-ssed, still i was suffering
spent that march in charlottesville
saw the ghost of thomas jefferson
sitting on my window sill

with his thin powdered hair
and his concubine there he did smile
i did not know that i was running
i saw the twilight gleaming

down on the landscape
of my alcatraz escape
from the sadness ’twas born in my soul
i went down through the labyrinth
of my falsified regret
deep in flight from the light in my soul

oh what a complicated tapestry i sewed
all that energy i wasted on my fear
all those years spent stumbling down that lonesome road

it’s not very clear
how far or how near i have come
i did not know that i was running
i see the sunlight streaming

down on the landscape…
