lyrics

A long time ago the asphalt rain
Fell on these fields and flooded the plains
Left one big river to chart the terrain
And deep in the earth a spirit cries
For someone still living to recognize
How soft the fanfare when a nation dies

Gone are the five and dimes
Gone are the grifters, rosemary and thyme
Gone are the workers, but their pyramids
Still stand
On stolen land
Stolen land

They say you’re wicked and I believe
‘Cause I’ve seen you laugh when you might have grieved
Under the weight of your destiny
And all Iowa boys and Nebraska girls
Feel the smoke and the noise of their shrinking worlds
You face the future with cracked lips curled

Gone are the five and dimes
Gone are the grifters, rosemary and thyme
Gone are the workers, but their pyramids
Still stand
On stolen land
Stolen land

Don’t need no one to show you the way
Don’t need no one to show you the way
Don’t need no one to show you the way
Don’t need no one
No one

Gone are the five and dimes
Gone are the grifters, rosemary and thyme
Gone are the workers, but their pyramids
Still stand

Gone are the five and dimes
Gone are the grifters, rosemary and thyme
Gone are the workers, but their pyramids
Still stand
On stolen land
Stolen land
Stolen land
Stolen land
