Letra de 'Clear Skies' de Bound by Law

Up on the hill by the old copper beech
We got a wooden shack
So worn, you could grind it down with your teeth
Here you do nothing but kick back
Nothing but thick smoke and good times get out of that shack

Downtown people look troubled, pale and diseased
Some folk juggled round with the big rocks
Now they have to fish them out of the stream
Up here I tell you - the Greeks, got nothing on me
Ancient, Modern, Myth whatever, got none on me

Wherever we go things are looking fine
Pa always said, boy don’t you ever go stronger than wine
But I never fancied no dogma, I’ll rather ride between the lines
When it gets too hot at night, we lay in the dew
Tab into a memory and string it to a tune
Pass it all around, I tell you - I’ll cut a monolith out of you

Saw something pretty roll off the mountain slope
It just kept tumbling on down the hill, now I’m not sure where I’m going
Winter made my legs stiff and cold
But no more aches and frowns
Cuz the seeds have been laid, for another day

The head must bow now, and the back will ache
Put my money on a horse’s tail, but then we saw she had four wooden legs
That creature, she ain’t taking home no race
I’ll be handing my soul over to corporate goons
Turn a blind eye to those who suffer on the news
Do whatever it takes - to be lying right next to you

Got lost in the horizon, I was turning blind
Thunder and lightning further up woke my mind
I put the hammer on the table, said boy – how many fingers do you plan on keeping tonight?
Then bury this here tool
Before we both will be screaming like fools

I’ve been rolling with the coal wagons now, east and west
This old diesel cuts the horizon into halves, thirds and fifths
And I’m gaining age in a slower rateLLL than the rest
My girl she’s tougher than the rest
This engine cuts mountains into dust
And we’ll blow past whatever there’s left - out there in the wild

I’ll be drinking my liquor in this city here tonight
Tomorrow I’ll be passing on along down the line
I’m done selling myself to the highest bidder
I’ll take it day by day now
Till my corpse is dragged away like litter
