Oh country down Where I found my proving ground All along the floodline Wheels are turning around The hills roll out like centuries Pass by without a sound Just a mile outside of town Downriverbound Where the sky fell down A plot against your will Is furrowed into your brow Against your better judgment It's all behind you now Just a mile outside of town What's the use of being found? You can lose yourself [?] underground In the weeds hiding down river right next door There's no frame around your picture Just a view through my back door Time evermore You just found what you're looking for A tiger rose growing through your prison door Reaching for sunlight, can't see it anymore Just a mile from my back door You could wake up on a lifeboat 'neath the sun On a ladder up to the sky You're standing on the lowest rung Holding a lifeline, using my best defense Running in the undertow I couldn't fight against Oh lay me down Where we found my proving ground All along the floodline Waves are turning around The hills roll out like centuries Pass by without a sound Just a mile outside of town
