Damien Jurado - ONALASKA lyrics

It was if I went looking for a new direction Indecisive and undecided I had been in the desert and spent time on a mountain Off of my feet and floating in suspension Heard the voices of wisdom and sang with creation Where my name was a color and my years were a number I was freedom in motion where the wind never slumbered Disguising my voice so not to be heard Don't say you ever knew me Long after I am gone Don't say you ever knew me I had my doubts so you gave me an option Take what's in front of you or the highway It was you I ran into, I'd been dying for days Off of my feet and floating in suspension Heard your voice from the next room in a song on a station Where my name was repeated through the static and numbers We are the way, we are the ending Don't say you ever knew me Long after I am gone Don't say that you saw this Long after I am gone
