From the recording The Great Salt Flats
Lyrics
We’re ankle deep in the great salt flats
Standing in the middle of nowhere
It’s still as a mirror in yesterday’s rain
Yesterday’s rain
We used to be
So great together
Hand in hand
eye to eye
But we never went any deeper
No we never went any deeper
We’re ankle deep in the great salt flats
Stranded in the middle of nowhere
Never an argument never a word
Never a word
The sky’s at our feet,
But we’re not soaring
Touching the bottom
But we’re not grounded
And we’ll never get any deeper
No we’ll never get any deeper
There’s nothing to cut the deafening calm
The relentless blue.
There’s nothing to drink
Nothing to sink a heart into
We’re ankle deep in the great salt flats
Wading in the middle of nowhere
It stretches for hours
Maybe even days
Maybe even days
But it’ll never get any deeper
We’re ankle deep in the great Salt Flats.
We’re ankle deep in the great Salt Flats.
