lyrics

The temples all caved in
And the bells were rusted and cracked
The saviors all stopped saving
And they ain't ever coming back

The birds all took to walking
And the fish did too
Everybody just stopped talking
When midnight came at noon

I'll be there
I'll be there

The children ran away
And the dog left a suicide note
The neighbors are reading your mail
And no one laughs at your jokes

The treasure map was wrong
And the garden was a trap
Boys in the band have long gone home
But we won't need no music to dance

I'll be there
I'll be there

I'm gunna hold onto you
Like a tree holds its leaves
Like the skin of a snake
Or a single snow flake

You're like a word I can't rhyme
Although, I know your body, your soul, and your mind
And at the end of time
When its all been laid bare
You know I'll be there

I'm getting a little hazy
And I'm working on this gut
I'll still need you like crazy
You're my wheel and I'm your rut

We've got to roll like the hills
Or we'll sink just like a stone
If love was just cheap thrills
You know i could do it all I my own

I'll be there
I'll be there
