Quattro (world Drifts In) Lyrics - Calexico

love the run but not the race 

all alone in a silent way 

world drifts in and the world's a stranger 

in a light, eclipsed and alienated 

in a time, occupied and invaded 

can't tell what's right, better hit the ground running 

in the hills where the tall weed grows 

hands are tied and won't let go 

can't escape this place without leaving the world behind 

in a light, ashamed and humiliated 

in a time, sacrificed for the sake of trade 

the soul is bent, feels the weight of truth 

falling through 

left behind, no choice but to run to the mountains 

where no poppies grow, you have to hit the ground running

in a light, paralyzed and spirits fading 

out of time, must decide to fall or run 

into the eye, of the storm no sign or omen 

make it right, or fall to the other side 

where fields are burning 

from the day you're born 

you'll always hit the ground running
