When we finally came back When we came back home Saw how they had left it They'd left it all alone When we finally saw it Saw what they had done It wasn't much of anything Not much of anything at all When we finally saw it Saw what they had done It wasn't much of anything Not much of anything at all Messengers came to your town You'd run and hide You'd watch them die You never heard what they would tell I wonder why, I wonder why Carry a thousand silver bulbs Back from our hopes Carry a thousand silver bulbs Our back from our hopes Oh, well how're the ones you love I don't know, I don't know Carry a thousand silver bulbs A thousand years have come and gone But my clothes still look the same This is our last night in a tent They are yourselves stuck in the sand They cut your feet, they cut your hand What you never cease to show You give it more than I can hope That skin some stories full of holes But I guess they're good to know The light passed through the animals I passed through a million lights I saw something still shine the same The other end of a thousand eyes And all of this to try and find you there It was never made by my own hand
