The Speed Of Soul - Carrie Newcomer[00:00:00]
Written by:Carrie Newc[00:00:01]
I found her sleeping in a Kansas truck stop[00:00:15]
In the corner booth[00:00:21]
She'd been waiting there for months[00:00:25]
And that's the truth[00:00:28]
She looked at me with wary eyes[00:00:32]
She'd heard all my lies[00:00:37]
She was not surprised[00:00:41]
She only looked at me[00:00:43]
And shook her head[00:00:46]
Come back come home[00:00:48]
I'm gathering the crumbs and the stones[00:00:52]
Been traveling faster than my soul can go[00:00:55]
One subject line one click away[00:01:07]
But at the end of the day[00:01:12]
I couldn't even say[00:01:16]
The things that I had done[00:01:18]
So I spent the morning sweeping floors[00:01:22]
I didn't want much more[00:01:28]
Than to do just one thing at a time[00:01:32]
And call it mine[00:01:38]
Come back come home[00:01:39]
I'm gathering the crumbs and the stones[00:01:43]
Been traveling faster than my soul can go[00:01:46]
Before songs were grooves and lines[00:02:07]
Caught in jars like fireflies[00:02:11]
The only place a song was held[00:02:15]
Soft or razor sharp[00:02:19]
Was is in the heart[00:02:22]
Mr Gatling made a Gatling gun[00:02:26]
He said it would end war[00:02:32]
Who could send some mother's son through such a door[00:02:36]
But the bullets move at the speed of cold[00:02:42]
Drones do as they're told[00:02:48]
And the men go home at night and kiss the wife[00:02:52]
And watch TV[00:02:58]
And never see all those souls untethered floating out to sea[00:03:02]
Come back come home[00:03:10]
We're gathering the crumbs and the stones[00:03:13]
Been traveling faster than our souls can go[00:03:17]
Come back come home[00:03:28]
We're gathering the crumbs and the stones[00:03:32]
Been traveling faster than our souls can go[00:03:36]
Faster than our souls can go[00:03:46]
Faster than our souls can go[00:03:52]
