Division Day

Lyrics

There was a grown man dying from fright
 There was a grown man dying from fright
 So surprised at the things he'd say
 With a giant fantasy life
 
 Runnin 'round on feet of clay
 Naked except for a perpetual debt
 That couldn't be stripped away
 An unrightable wrong that moved him along
 Closer to division day
 Spent a long time living with that
 Never could give it a name
 And when you don't know what you're looking at
 It makes it much harder to take
 Mostly they'd meet when he was asleep
 And have some sick exchange
 That stuck him as wrong and moved him along
 Closer to division day
 ♪
 I can't make an exception for a bad Connection
 
 That only goes one way
 Sell out for a song where I don't belong
 With you on division day
 The moon stood up on the ridge
 Looking down where the water shines
 And a man looking over the bridge
 Like he done so many times
 Thinking about how to stay out
 
 Out of troubles way
 And Flying to fall away from you all
 It's over division day
 Beautiful division day
 ♪
 Thinking about how to stay out
 Out of troubles way
 Flying to fall away from you all
 It's over division day
 Beautiful division day
