Lyrics

There were too many years

There have been too many years elapsed

Under spells awry

Under incorrect or misguiding influences

As the fortune appears

As the luck or destiny becomes visible

It begins to die

It starts to perish or fade away

So I've come here to wait

Therefore, I'm here to anticipate

For the end of it all

The conclusion or termination of everything

Till I'm gone from here

Until I'm absent from this place

I'm gone from here

I'm absent from this place


Children of the grounds

Individuals connected to the land

Are making warring sounds

Are creating aggressive noises or conflicts

For those outside

For those who are external to this

With no care for time

Without concern for the passage of time

They're full of love for life

They are filled with affection for existence


Mother calling out

A maternal figure is making a plea

To bring the end around

To bring about the conclusion or finale

We weren't quite done

We weren't completely finished

She blames it on the sun

She attributes it to the sun


We're raised in a town

We were brought up in a place

Where they jump on your back and sing

Where people metaphorically burden you and sing

Leave an imprint on your shoulder blades

Leaving an impression on your back

Wanna walk away

Desiring to depart from this situation

We're not all the same in this town

We are not all identical in this locality


We're raised in a town

We were raised in a place

Where they jump on your back like children

Where they burden you like children

And they leave you none

And they won't leave you any

They will leave you none

They will not leave you any


And we're all undone in this town

We are all falling apart in this place

And we're all undone in this town

There were too many years

There have been too many years elapsed

Under spells awry

Under incorrect or misguiding influences

As the fortune appears

As the luck or destiny becomes visible

It begins to die

It starts to perish or fade away


So I've come here to wait

Therefore, I'm here to anticipate

For the end of it all

The conclusion or termination of everything

Till I'm gone from here

Until I'm absent from this place

I'm gone from here

I'm absent from this place


I'm gone

I'm absent

I'm gone
