| The land's opening up like a blanket | |
| And the dandelions spread themselves thickly out | |
| Along the fields, which are, evidently, endless | |
| And we are hotly in love with one another | |
| We've got an unquenchable thirst in our throats | |
| We are, for some reason, all the time bleeding | |
| We are friendless | |
| And we love these dogs that roll on the lawns here in Galesburg | |
| Because they seem to know something nobody else knows | |
| It is written in the smiles on their faces and it rings in their high young voices | |
| We are burning up all of our choices up here where the tall grass grows | |
| Up here in Galesburg | |
| The sky's opening up like an old wound | |
| And the rain on our bodies is warm tonight | |
| And the ground underneath us shakes in the cracking thunder | |
| We can taste fresh blood in our mouths again | |
| There is no chance of getting enough of it | |
| And we tally up all our posessions, we're going under | |
| Yeah, we love these dogs that loll in the rain here in Galesburg | |
| As the new season rocks them in its terrible arms | |
| They howl as if the world were ending as we are watching the sky unwinding | |
| Some of our promises were binding up here where our dreams take form | |
| Up here in Galesburg | |
| Up here in Galesburg |
