Paroles de Bury My Feet

if i ever lose your voice
if it gets drowned in all the noise
i'll run for it
chase my memory for a while

if i ever forget your face
if it gets erased
i'll collect the broken bits
reassemble it, i'll try

to bury my feet where the ocean and the sand meet
and hope the waves don't wash me away
it's the best i can do, hope something in me takes root
and wait out the water for a while

if i drown in my own bed
if i lose to my heart, my head again
you'll be my last defense

but i'll bury my feet
where my mind and my body meet
and hope i stay standing for a while
what else can you do when there's an ocean trying to drown you
but watch the water rise and smile

bloodshot eyes, breaklights so the pedal and the floor meet
and watch waves of trees go by

it's all i can do,
hope where i'm going leads to you
and watch the horizon take its time
