Meet Me Here at Dawn - Andrew Bird

The empty tank is us

Expired milk is us

This is a test of trust

Meet me here at dawn

So, jump the wooden fence

Run past the speckled hens

If you had any sense, you’d meet me here at dawn

Find the memory, erase it from your mind

Just give it up, just give it up

Our friends and family will all get left behind

We’ll give them up, we’ll give them up

I’m gone, this light is shot

Whether you come or not

I think you know you ought to meet me here at dawn

Find the memory, confront it like a crime

Just, beat it up, just beat it up

Your close and precious things, we’ll leave them all behind

Give them up

Forge the painful past

Let go of all the grass

This is the last I’ll ask

To meet me here at dawn
