Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Little birdie making car alarm sounds
In the tree next to your house
Little baby know to smile for the picture
Then go back to drawing that flower
And a smokey chimney too
And an arrow pointing at their room
And the stars above
Was that a satellite you drew, my love?
[Verse 2]
It's a signal in the noise
It's a bell in a mine
It's a black dog in a junkyard
Gonna chase you down in time
Chase you down in time
[Verse 3]
Can you catch up to the cars on the highway?
Run them down
Can you throw yourself off of an airplane?
Breath ripped out
While you showboat
While you slow float
While the Earth gets large and loud
Are you breathing now?
Here's the ground
[Verse 4]
Don't you want to catch you?
Don't you want to catch you?
Make you feel your pulse
Make your feet fly
[Verse 5]
Don't you want to catch you?
Don't you want to catch you?
Drag you down in the dirt
Make you feel alive
[Verse 6]
It's a signal in the noise
It's a bell in a mine
It's a black dog in a junkyard
Gonna chase you down in time
[Verse 7]
It's a signal in the noise
It's a bell in a mine
It's a black dog in a junkyard
Gonna chase you down in time
[Verse 8]
It's a signal in the noise
It's a bell in a mine
It's a black dog in a junkyard
Gonna chase you down in time
