Lyrics

Where You Came From

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You turn yourself into a hero

And then you turn yourself into a story

That’s just how it works

Then you give it to your friends and family

Then they pass it down to their children

And that’s just where you end

But there’s just one way

To know the ones who knew

But there’s just one way

To know, to know

I won’t wait for your shadow to come

Just to take me away

To the ground where you came from

I won’t wait for your shadow to come

Just to take me away

To the ground where you came from

You brought yourself into sentence

Then you mail it down to Chicago

For your baby to read

Well I did my best to read it slowly

Then I read it once more for meaning

And then I threw you away

But there’s just one way

To know the ones who knew

There’s just one way

To know, to know

I won’t wait for your shadow to come

Just to take me away

To the ground where you came from

I won’t wait for your shadow to come

Just to take me away

To the ground where you came from
