Rosemont

Rosemont - Frontier Ruckus[00:00:00]

Oh I know everybody here's been[00:00:14]

Dying to get back to Rosemont Street[00:00:18]

But that road was made of flesh[00:00:21]

And now it's dead and now it's beat[00:00:23]

The sun burnt past every rock[00:00:27]

Across the street from that cracked lot[00:00:30]

Detroit air just breaths away[00:00:33]

And that sun died in a petrified way[00:00:35]

Onto the driveway [00:00:39]

Table napkins blown away[00:00:42]

Into the alleyway and summer[00:00:45]

Is the strangest time of day[00:00:49]

I've seen beauty far upstate[00:01:03]

A century is all it takes[00:01:06]

To turn a homestead to the ground[00:01:13]

But there is one thing that I found[00:01:16]

I ain't seen these things in vain[00:01:19]

And deep outside the siren's wailing[00:01:28]

Far from me on the still night[00:01:31]

Through the yards the spores are sailing[00:01:34]

On the toes of those dreams in flight[00:01:37]

To the north back and forth[00:01:42]

Our moments make us off-ramp islands[00:01:46]

Where language tramps falls to silence[00:01:49]

To forget the T V set[00:01:54]

And images of stranger feelings rape[00:01:58]

Our walls and wallpaper our ceilings[00:02:01]

I've seen beauty far upstate[00:02:16]

A century is all it takes[00:02:19]

To turn a homestead to the ground[00:02:26]

But there is one thing that I found[00:02:29]

I ain't seen these things in vain[00:02:32]

I was born to the lawnmower's crying[00:02:43]

And the drying of our gilded lot[00:02:50]

Trust in God when our roofs are sighing again[00:02:55]

And the hill is crying thanks a lot[00:03:02]

Watertowers are drunker than grandfathers[00:03:07]

But they're equally happy[00:03:15]

All that's golden was once eternally unfoldin'[00:03:19]

Now dusktime is the glimpse to see it [00:03:26]

But I'm a burstin' piece [00:03:39]

A questionin' priest [00:03:41]

Like a politician out east[00:03:42]

I've seen swimming pools full of darkness [00:03:45]

On the brightest moonlit nights[00:03:48]

And I've seen fairgrounds [00:03:51]

Heard their sounds [00:03:53]

In that ground lies just what I've found[00:03:54]

Basements are now all we got[00:03:57]

With decade shades and days that rot[00:04:00]

Landbirds flew over my head [00:04:03]

Flag at half mast no one is dead[00:04:06]

Oh I know that that's not true [00:04:09]

But we're so desp'rate [00:04:12]

What else can we do [00:04:13]

I've seen beauty far upstate[00:04:27]

A century is all it takes[00:04:30]

To turn a homestead to the ground[00:04:37]

But there is one thing that I found[00:04:40]

I ain't seen these things in vain[00:04:43]

I ain't seen these things in vain[00:04:50]

I ain't seen these things in vain[00:04:56]

I ain't seen these things in vain[00:05:02]

And everybody dying here has[00:05:08]

Made it back to Rosemont Street[00:05:12]

The roses shake the sidewalk aches[00:05:15]

And Detroit air is hissing at our feet[00:05:19]
