lyrics

Take me where we used to go
We can watch the lake explode
Let the shock wash over us,
Lying naked in the grass.
A flash, a flash and clouds will obscure us;
Back there where we used to go,
Where we could watch the lake explode
And fill the sky with ghosts of truth
While blood spills from the mouths of youth
Whose skin fall off in piles.
Let it fall for miles,
Loving all the while
Take me where we used to go
We can watch the lake explode
Let the shock wash over us,
Lying naked in the grass.
That lake where we used to go,
With nothing left behind us
Save for cattle, blind and aimless
That stagger through the fields
Toothless, burned, and peeled,
Where we can watch the lake explode
And make love in the afterglow.
Take me where we used to go
We can watch the lake explode
Let the shock wash over us,
Lying naked in the grass.
No fish in the boiling river,
Nothing left for dinner,
Take me where we used to go
Just you and me and Einstein's ghost
To form a hallowed, holy host,
Just like the one we used to know.
