(Just a little further up the hill boy,
You’ll be home soon enough.)
All along the river, peddling as fast as I could
Watch as the wasteland flowers
All cars and rubbish flourish, with black berries and red berries
Sweet black berries (?)
Tainted red berries (?)
Berries
Berries
When looking for my tower
of all the rails and the roads
I need a resurrection
as my desires and power, grown thicket
tall around me
Tall around me
Tall around me
Around
Around
Around now
Well, have I been travelling so long
that I forgot how to stop?
Why are my brakes all broken?
Wheels spinning out of control
In mirror (?)
pale and deathly have become
Oh, what have I become?
Mother (?)
what have I have become?
Become
Become
Become now
Now
And all my wastelands flower
(and all my wastelands flower)
And all my thickets grow on and
And all my wastelands flower
(when all my wastelands flower)
And all my thickets grow tall and tall
Still damn tall
Tall and tall
And around
All around me
(round and round and round)
What have I become?
Pale and deathly have become
What have I become?
Pale and deathly have become
Become
Become
Become now
[etc.]
You’ll be home soon enough.)
All along the river, peddling as fast as I could
Watch as the wasteland flowers
All cars and rubbish flourish, with black berries and red berries
Sweet black berries (?)
Tainted red berries (?)
Berries
Berries
When looking for my tower
of all the rails and the roads
I need a resurrection
as my desires and power, grown thicket
tall around me
Tall around me
Tall around me
Around
Around
Around now
Well, have I been travelling so long
that I forgot how to stop?
Why are my brakes all broken?
Wheels spinning out of control
In mirror (?)
pale and deathly have become
Oh, what have I become?
Mother (?)
what have I have become?
Become
Become
Become now
Now
And all my wastelands flower
(and all my wastelands flower)
And all my thickets grow on and
And all my wastelands flower
(when all my wastelands flower)
And all my thickets grow tall and tall
Still damn tall
Tall and tall
And around
All around me
(round and round and round)
What have I become?
Pale and deathly have become
What have I become?
Pale and deathly have become
Become
Become
Become now

You'll be home soon enough.")
All along the river
Pedaling fast as I could
Watch as the wasteland flowers
Old cars and rubbish flourish
With blackberries and
Red berries
Sweet blackberries
Tainted red berries
Berries
Berries
Went looking for my tower
Off all the rails and the roads
In need of resurrection
As my desires and powers
Grow in thickets
Tall all round me
Tall all around me
Tall around me
Around
Around
Around
Have I been traveling so long
That I've forgot how to stop?
Why are my brakes all broken?
Wheels spinning out of control
And in the mirror
Pale and deathly have become
Look, what have I become
Mother, what have I become
Become
Become
Become now
And all my wastelands flower
And all my thickets grow
And all my wastelands flower
And all my thickets grow
Taller and taller still
Taller and taller
Taller and taller
All around
All around me
What have I become
Pale and deathly have become
What have I become
Become
Become
Become now
("Pale and deathly
As all the wasteland flowers
And all the thickets grow")
Become
Become
Become now
("Pale and deathly
As all your wasteland flowers
And all the thickets grow")
on top of that, it's such a beautiful, out-of-body-experience type song
-Also, off the rails and roads, not of.
-Growing thicker, not grown thicket
This is my favourite song on the album, it's just so heartbreakingly beautiful. The strings and Jo's vocals on it are stunning. Also, Tilda fits in so well!
