Great Lake Swimmers
Uncertain Country
[Verse 1]
Real or imagined, it hardens into habit
Stains on a Saturday, watch it burn away
Heart flush with heaviness, under the heavens
Hovering above, a feeling
Can't reach it
[Verse 2]
Uncertain country, shifting underneath
Couldn't see it coming, or where it's coming from
In the air, in the clouds, long gone
Beyond belief
Can't reach it
[Chorus]
Uncertain country
Uncertain country
[Verse 3]
Rusted machinery, language, and the battery
Years sitting idle, fading in front of me
Steel fingers in the earth, determining its worth
Bones on the surface, left to weather
[Verse 4]
Pulled into the future, now what are you supposed to do?
Passed just as fast, the eye to pull the future through
Living in the present, in the moment
Not ahead, not behind, or below
Can't reach it
[Chorus]
Uncertain country
Uncertain country
[Verse 5]
Heat of the lucky sun, against the endless mile
Sweating the thought, pathways away from here
Break logic, erratic, animal
Dirt, trees, hungry teeth
Sinking in
[Verse 6]
Thinking out of bounds, and what will happen after
With the picture out of focus, blurred and clouded over
Static in the frame, and with a stutter
Not in flight, on the road, on foot
Can't reach it
[Chorus]
Uncertain country, uncertain country
Uncertain country, uncertain country
