Come on down from you're high mountain, wallow here among us, we'll measure you out against our dog put sticks in your mouth, wipe it down with gasoline, kiss me under a shadow, pour rock salt in the cut, I better have a good scar when this is all over. Chewing on pennies, spitting out nails, feathers are worn off, spoken in tongues of idiots mumbling a proposal, first we'll be made desolate, then we'll be forgotten, come on darlin', come on love, I'll not forsake you as the dead sun rises. Give my heart a pounding, give my heart a pounding. Come on down from you're high mountain, wallow here among us, forgive me for beating a confession out of the earth, first we'll be made desolate, then we'll be forgotten, come on darlin', come on love, I better have a good scar when this is all over, we're all bearing the weight my dear. Give my heart a pounding, give my heart a pounding, give my heart a pounding, give my heart a pounding.
