The Siren Tower - Last Apple in the Big Man's Orchard lyrics

She was closer to God in 1942 Before Kokoda had lost her son, Baby Blue Now she's left with a man Who cashed out long ago In a farm house with land Where nothing seems to grow She says I'm alone now, even though you're here And he was closer to God in 1975 Before the cancer had come to visit with his wife He would cry by her side In those final nights Her last words broke the man “Honey, will you be alright?” He says, I'm alone now, even though you're here Can you feel it taking over Can you make this go away I feel younger, but I'm older And I fear it's gonna stay Can't you feel this breaking my faith dear, in you We were closer to gods in mid 2001 Before the anger in man damn near scorched the sun And we were born of the kings Who caused this to be done Who gave us fire skies And a war that can never be won We're alone now, even though you're here Can you feel it taking over Can you make this go away I feel younger, but I'm older And I fear it's gonna stay Can't you feel this breaking my faith dear, in you Why lay by the river when the river's dry Can you feel this breaking my heart, dear Have I been away for too long Have I been away for too long, dear
