Turquoise Mines Lyrics
Factory, just go ahead and swallow me
It's not the way I'd planned to see
My old age creeping in
Oh well
Life is safe, as long as you assume a shape
That measures rationally
And fits in with the rest
And doesn't budge
But I'm racing my flaws
Toward some end they'd drawn
I hope they mapped it out wrong
'Cause I'm already gone
Blackbeard's lord,
Well I think he sounds a lot like yours
Well maybe there's a hundred more,
And they only share a name
And a laugh
But I took my time
To figure out it was not mine
Through twenty years of turquoise mines
I'd forgotten my way back
But I've been sorting trash,
And holding it against my past
But lately I could cut this cast
'Cause God knows that I've healed underneath
But I'm racing my flaws
Toward some end they'd drawn
I hope they mapped it out wrong
'Cause I'm taking too long
It's not the way I'd planned to see
My old age creeping in
Oh well
That measures rationally
And fits in with the rest
And doesn't budge
Toward some end they'd drawn
I hope they mapped it out wrong
'Cause I'm already gone
Well I think he sounds a lot like yours
Well maybe there's a hundred more,
And they only share a name
And a laugh
To figure out it was not mine
Through twenty years of turquoise mines
I'd forgotten my way back
And holding it against my past
But lately I could cut this cast
'Cause God knows that I've healed underneath
Toward some end they'd drawn
I hope they mapped it out wrong
'Cause I'm taking too long
