lyrics
Where I grew up there's an old ravine. We would spend our afternoons there, wading through the shallow streams. But kids don't play there anymore; the waters all got poisoned when they found some precious ore.
Past the trees are the empty fields. The farmers left them years ago when the seasons brought no yield. There's not much here but dust and stone. The empty barns ring hollow, all the doors are rusted closed.
Past the fields are the empty trains. They used to carry workers every night and every day. But one day all the work ran out, so they packed up what they could and went to look in other towns.
Past the tracks are the empty homes. They're barely standing up still, so many years they've been left alone. Well, they say they're haunted anyway, because the dead folks there won't leave if they've got nowhere else to stay.
So I'll kneel down in that old ravine and whisper prayers into the ground until our world is healed. You'll find my body after dark; the new grasses growing have laid their roots down in my empty heart.
