[Verse 1]
Found a body at the rest stop
Buried in the woods beneath
The garbage and leaves
Workers clearing overgrowth
Saw hidden in the brush
Just beyond the line of the trees
A jawbone and teeth
Winter into spring
On Fulton Street
[Verse 2]
And cities grow weeds
And cities grow
And cities keep secrets in the trees
In the shadow of a pyramid
And cities grow weeds
And cities grow
By the river and the covered bridge
All cities grow weeds
And I know
[Verse 3]
All the memories your dreams retrieve
You pick a dress out for the funeral
Hold a vigil in the field
Release lanterns at night
And I saw on the shoulder of the interstate
When I followed your eyes
When I followed your eyes
All the crosses for the accidents
All the photos and the flowers by the street
Found a body at the rest stop
Buried in the woods beneath
The garbage and leaves
Workers clearing overgrowth
Saw hidden in the brush
Just beyond the line of the trees
A jawbone and teeth
Winter into spring
On Fulton Street
[Verse 2]
And cities grow weeds
And cities grow
And cities keep secrets in the trees
In the shadow of a pyramid
And cities grow weeds
And cities grow
By the river and the covered bridge
All cities grow weeds
And I know
[Verse 3]
All the memories your dreams retrieve
You pick a dress out for the funeral
Hold a vigil in the field
Release lanterns at night
And I saw on the shoulder of the interstate
When I followed your eyes
When I followed your eyes
All the crosses for the accidents
All the photos and the flowers by the street
