Lyrics
Slide like a spirit
Down the same old roads
You've been haunting these hills
Since the morning you were born
Now the cracks in the pavement
Are the cracks in your heart
You go over the same old faults
Every time you walk to the bar
Ain't you wet when you get there
Whether rain or tears or sweat?
And the wind shaking the panes
It's the same as in your chest
Yes, it's the same out there
As it is in here
It's the same out there
As it is in here
Why should it be different?
Should it be anything but that?
Should we open our mouths
And spit out California sand?
Yeah, we sing what we're given
Into a piece of shit P.A.
We sing grey foggy day
We sing no change in me
Yeah, but it's arm in arm in arm
And ain't it loud enough to stun?
Hearing them all, heaving along
Into the one same song
Oh, is it the same out there
As it is in here?
Is it the same over there
As it is down here?
So, pull your cloak around me now
Pull your cloak around me now
Pull me close
And keep the cold night out, oh
Oh, lean in to me
So you're near to me now
Once a stranger to me, but
Now you're the song in my mouth
Ah-da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da
Ah-da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da
Ah-da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da
And you slide like a spirit
Out to the icy step
Feel the night on your face
The mist upon your lips
You pull the cloak around you
As you listen to the wind
And you hum the refrain
As you take the hill again
