It moved him along closer to division day





It just continues...





I spent a long time living with that

Never could give it a name

And when you dont know what youre looking at

Makes it much harder to tame

Mostly theyd meet when he was asleep and

Have some sick exchange

That struck him as wrong

And moved him along closer to division day



(solo)



I cant make an exception for a bad connection

That only goes one way

Sell out for a song where I dont belong

With you on division day



The moon stood up on the ridge

Looking down where the water shines

And a man looking over the bridge

Like hed done so many times

Thinking about how to stay out

Out of troubles way

Flying to fall away from you all

Its over division day

Beautiful division day
