After the Slaughter

After the slaughter
I head true north
To a lake
The beat-out sun
Where trees grow tall
And blue volts run
After the slaughter
I will break out
I will cross
The flooded site
I'll forget
The man I am now
I will breathe
Clean air again
And when I get
To where I'm going
I'll follow tracks
Tracks out through the grass
The corner fields
Will give me your name
And you'll be mine
Mine at last
And you'll be mine
Mine at last
