How far you've come these iron days
There's only distance in this place
Oh lonesome and apart
Counting up and down the days
It'll pull you out of you
Howling like a dog
Into the darkest darkness you've ever known
Sighing low
An ancient pine
Deep in the heart of a burning zone
Don't you know?
Don't you know?
You feel it in your shoulder blades
Up to your hips in the cold cold clay
You've hardened on the rocks
And in the unforgiving sun
It'll pull you out of you
Howling like a dog
Into the darkest darkness you've ever known
Sighing low
An ancient pine
Deep in the heart of a burning zone
Don't you know?
Don't you know?
