The Eastern Sea - Plague lyrics

Across this frozen lake I've heard a pack of feral dogs howling at the moon I used to know the pitch by heart at which they crooned But it's sharper now And in the tree, in the green above our heads I used to feel the birch leaves rattle through my spine And just for a moment, like I could turn back time Well what is the future now So beyond these ugly hills I've seen a square where politician's signs are hung I knew their campaign slogan in a foreign tongue But it's nonsense now And back in my hometown I remember girls whose bodies I adored I knew their names just like then knew my revolving door But there's strangers now So above the hum of this bar tonight I think I heard you say there's only room for one You don't know which one of us is dying young But I'm sober now
