Damien Jurado - ONALASKA lyrics
[Damien Jurado - ONALASKA lyrics]
It was if I went looking for a new direction
Indecisive, undecided
I had been in the desert
Spent time on a mountain
Off of my feet, floating in suspension
Heard the voices of wisdom
And sang with creation
Where my name was a color and
The years were my number
I was freedom in motion where
The wind never slumbered
Disguising my voice, so not to be heard
Don't say you ever knew me
Long after I'm gone
Don't say you ever knew me
I had my doubts, so you gave me an option
Take what's in front of you or the highway
It was you I ran into
I'd been dying for days
Off of my feet, floating in suspension
Heard your voice from the next room
In a song on a station
Where my name was repeated through
The static and numbers
We are the way, we are the ending
Don't say you ever saw this
Long after I'm gone
Don't say you ever saw this
Long after I'm gone
Indecisive, undecided
I had been in the desert
Spent time on a mountain
Off of my feet, floating in suspension
Heard the voices of wisdom
And sang with creation
Where my name was a color and
The years were my number
I was freedom in motion where
The wind never slumbered
Disguising my voice, so not to be heard
Don't say you ever knew me
Long after I'm gone
Don't say you ever knew me
I had my doubts, so you gave me an option
Take what's in front of you or the highway
It was you I ran into
I'd been dying for days
Off of my feet, floating in suspension
Heard your voice from the next room
In a song on a station
Where my name was repeated through
The static and numbers
We are the way, we are the ending
Don't say you ever saw this
Long after I'm gone
Don't say you ever saw this
Long after I'm gone
