What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
In an open field at dusk, to footfalls I awoke
2
Marching ants across my temples, oh
3
Their feet had no intention
4
They followed some magnetic drum
5
Prisoners of their destination
6
From the slats of the factory come
7
Where once they did make rails
8
Old Death's peculiar songs
9
He didn't know I was listening
10
So he crowed out nice and long
11
To the spiders and the lumber
12
And the dust of his conquest
13
And his hunger and his lust
14
I heard his feet rejoice
15
I heard him tap his cane
16
As if he had his own review
17
On stage at the F and M
18
I caught his words in my open mouth
19
I gagged and choked and spit them out
20
I heard him turn his heated hear
21
My tiny heart beat in his ear
22
I was already running
23
Oh, I heard him coming
24
Shrapnel spitting from his wheels
25
His sobbing arms raked for my heels
26
I dove and rolled and hid my face
27
And I said these magic words:
28
My dove is home
29
Her breast is warm
30
My dove is home
31
And I said these magic words
32
And fell down, down the anthill for days
33
My dove is home
34
Her breast is warm
35
My dove is home
36
My dove is home
37
Her breast is warm
38
My dove is home
