Screaming Trees - Where The Twain Shall Meet lyrics

All right now Push against the wooden table A sliver cut no trace of pain I lose its image as it blurs away I feel the rope as it slowly frays (chorus) You never know where the twain shall meet You never know which one stays Keep aware of the trap that snares And which one stays Statue people move like dripping water It's a nail into the cracking ice You sleep with thoughts of a coming day I drag behind on a frozen chain (repeat chorus) Which one stays So i'm down but i don't know what way i'm going So very long and it doesn't matter where this has gone Slide a coin into the magic light machine Watch a story that is never free It takes a toll and it melds you wise Keeps you alone nearly all the time You never know where the twain shall meet You never know which one stays Keep aware of the trap that snares You're never gonna know which one stays Which one stays Which one stays
