Oh, stiffness in my back, won't you back off?
Oh, stiffness in my neck, won't you up away?
Like I can't rub away the writings on the page
They stay, they stay
Like an image erased
You're mostly gone
But they're so faint
Things tend to stay where you left them off
Trouble, trouble
She never goes
She's part of your fabric
You're going to erase
You're going to erase
Out of the ruins
Are seeds to sow
They come from the same bricks
You build and grow
They're part of the fabric
You're going to erase
Going to erase
You're going to erase
You're going to erase
You're going to erase
Oh, line between my brow
How did you get there?
Longing for a time that's already past
And I can't rub away the writings on the page
The writing's on the page
They stay, they stay
Like an image erased
You're mostly gone
But they're so faint
Things tend to stay where you left them all
Trouble, trouble, she never goes
She's part of your fabric
You've gone to race
Out of the ruins are seeds to sow
They come from the same bricks
You build and grow
They're part of the fabric
You've gone to race
Gone to race
Oh, no
Oh, no
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, stiffness in my back
Won't you back off?
