Quattro (World Drifts In) Lyrics by Calexico

Love the run but not the raceall alone in a silent wayworld drifts in and the world’s a strangerin a light, eclipsed and alienatedin a time, occupied and invadedcan’t tell what’s right, better hit the ground runningin the hills where the tall weed growshands are tied and won’t let gocan’t escape this place without leaving the world behindin a light, ashamed and humiliatedin a time, sacrificed for the sake of tradethe soul is bent, feels the weight of truthfalling throughleft behind, no choice but to run to the mountainswhere no poppies grow, you have to hit the ground runningin a light, paralyzed and spirits fadingout of time, must decide to fall or runinto the eye, of the storm no sign or omenmake it right, or fall to the other sidewhere fields are burningfrom the day you’re bornyou’ll always hit the ground running
