Compound Fracture Lyrics - The Waterfall - My Morning Jacket

Compound fracture gonna ring the gong 

And sound a warning of what's to come 

If we ain't careful as to where we step 

Paradise calling or untimely death 

Compound fracture gotta set the bone 

Wrap it up let it heal on it's own 

Don't walk on it, give it time to rest 

There's no evil, there's no good 

Only people doing as they should 

There is life in love and sound 

Get as much as you can keep around 

Before they put you into the ground 

For who knows how long (Paradise calling) 

How long (Paradise calling) 

I know you're young, that's the time to learn 

If we're too soft on you, you will get burned 

Fill your skull with what you want 

There's no evil, there's no good 

Only people doing as they should 

Or as they shouldn't in the light of day 

"God" and "The Devil" were made up anyway 

But their meanings so real and so plain 

There is life in love and sound 

Get as much as you can keep around 

Before they put you into the ground 

For who knows how long (Paradise calling) 

How long (Paradise calling) 

For who knows how long (Paradise calling) 

How long (Paradise calling) 

Till the next go round and around 

Till the next go round 

Compound fracture gonna ring the gong 

And sound a warning of what's to come 

If we ain't careful as to where we step 

Paradise calling or untimely death
