lyrics

Oh, oh, on that day
When the daughters of song are brought low
I am going to die
Fog burns away
And the grasshopper drags himself along --
I am going to die
I choke away
On the dust that I'm made of when I realize
I'm going to die

Pinch myself when I sleep
Get no rest when I want to be asleep
I'm gonna sleep with my fathers in the ground
