Lyrics
Dust
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.
The floor moves and it trembles
Old west shakes as it opens up
People are dying and
I know the cause of it all
With so many buried
The dead twitch on crowded roads
Dirt breaks; dust follows,
Cracks in the plains are exposed
[they're restless enclosed]
The quake sets in
[they twitch underground]
The quake sets in
[dirt starts to shake]
The quake sets in
[it waves through the town]
The quake sets in
That's why the quake sets in
And dust rises again
Wreckage is clearing
The remnants all fade away
No one understands it
The tremors go on unexplained
[they're restless enclosed]
The quake sets in
[they twitch underground]
The quake sets in
[dirt starts to shake]
The quake sets in
[it waves through the town]
The quake sets in
All still to the great shaking
And dust rises again
Dust rises again
