Map Of The Falling Sky - Magnolia Electric Co.

I have paid my debts sometimes

With awkward silences

I was given two ears of corn and the bow

I ate the one, and sowed the other

And brother, I aim straight for the road

And brother, I aim straight for the road

With my wings in one hand and lead in the other

From the cross roads to the shore

What the horizon only tells to us ghosts

Is that when it is quiet in our heart

We become the diesel

We become the smoke

We become the prairie

We become the spark

And the only song coming through on the radio

And the only song comin' in on the radio

Well you take that map of the falling sky

And you lay it across your heart

And the loneliness between us is right where you are

The loneliness is right where you are
