[00:25] In our days we will live
[00:31] Like our ghosts will live...
[00:38] Pitching glass at the cornfield crows
[00:44] And folding clothes
[00:50] Like stubborn boys across the road
[00:57] We'll keep everything...
[01:03] Grandma's gun and the black bear claw
[01:10] That took her dog
[01:15] When sister Laurie says, "Amen"
[01:22] We won't hear anything...
[01:28] The ten-car trains will take that word
[01:35] That fledgling bird
[01:41] And the fallen house across the way
[01:47] It'll keep everything...
[01:53] The baby's breath
[01:57] Our bravery wasted and our shame
[02:07] And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
[02:13] Both our tender bellies wound in baling wire
[02:19] All the more a pair of underwater pearls
[02:26] Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern
[02:58] In our days we will say
[03:05] What our ghosts will say...
[03:11] We gave the world what it saw fit
[03:17] And what'd we get?
[03:23] Like stubborn boys with big green eyes
[03:29] We'll see everything...
[03:36] In the tender shade of the autumn leaves
[03:43] And the buzzard's wing
[03:49] And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
[03:56] Our tender bellies are wound around in baling wire
[04:02] All the more a pair of underwater pearls
[04:09] Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern
