At the Great Salt Lake

At the great salt lake

I call for the water to wash me down

Here the water won’t stain

She’ll leave me thirsting for to drown

Caught the next sleeper out to snow

There’s hope if she’s frozen the water won’t go

Hope is a dance with a wave on the ocean

Moving so very slow

You’re frightened your eyes

Betray the raven hiding in the night

But I’m far too tired

To see what a lifetime’s lying in the light

Just as a harvest hangs on a hill

So will a raven caw at your sill

Say what you like, all those you’ve ever loved

Glow hard and bright

I charge at your skin

Don’t say you’ll leave me standing at the gate

I feel more than akin

To those who walk on waves

Somehow we found the outer shore

So begins our journey towards the core

At the great salt lake

I call for water to wash me down
