Phosphate Skin
Jay Farrar
Everyone knows with ears to the ground
The daily drag finds the open sky
Trench foot first and the spirit alive
Deal for the dawn, find the unbroken sound
It can only get better from here
Don't have any fear
A universal key turns hope of man to his kind
Phosphate skin as the fall birds fly
Evolution will make a mess out of you
Tryin' to find love in the sewer of Subterranea
It can only get better from here
Don't have any fear
The daily drag makes you stronger
The daily drag makes you stronger
Makes you stronger
Never been a witness to ruinous in the morning
But the caged bird does sing a deeper blues
Ever seen the road less traveled and wondered
The best is within, not with who or where you've been
It can only get better from here
Don't have any fear
