strange gait

from wetlands by secret south

about

the earth don't stand still. why should he?

lyrics

it's a long time gone, this foot-worn trail
the scent is lost in the august gale
the stunted saunter of crooked fate

he got a strange
strange gait

photographs he can't stand to see:
a motel, a gas station, wounded knee
a legacy of misery
the weight of the wait

he got a strange gait

how hunched, how harried, how hollow heart
and full of nothing at all thou art
how heavy, how hideous, how does it feel?
it makes you fall
it makes you kneel
it crushes you under its heel

it's too late
it's too late
he got a strange gait
