crater from ruins by eel valley

i stood at the top of the ruins
i threw rocks into the distance
houses curled around the dark between

and there's a light on back in town
there's a phone a few miles down
and i can see it all

(oh and) in dreams
i see it as it used to be (it used to be)
valleys stretching farther than
the firelight can reach (the light can reach)

and in dreams
i see it as it used to be
mountains rising taller than
the water it's all
dazzling beneath

the many hills and halls
and meteors that
leave us where we
stand alone, these
pillars fall, these
frantic colors that i see

in dreams,
i see it as it used to be (it used to be)
in dreams,
i see it as it used to be (it used to be)
a crater swallowed by an ancient sea (it used to be)
a house is witness to so many things

i stood at the top of the ruins
i threw rocks into the distance
