Neko Case - Ghost Wiring lyrics

What happens at home since I've gone away Needles drop soft and sharp And the leaves gently sway Low ceiling moves in and circles the bay Rain rakes the trees The Sound that's counted so many days So many days Wet shoes drag you off to school Shoes that never dry Crows curse and beat their wings Why can't you be smarter girl? Lift up your face Don't feel sorry for yourself I'll always wait for you Your ghost is a lightshow at night On the Grand Coulee Dam The river is watching you At the drive-in tonight Who do they comfort now Since I've gone away
