My baby woke from an awful dream of rotten tropics b the sea 
Just up from her father's place 
Cutting through some empty space 
Where trash would turn to gold 
Palm Road 

We could see it from the shore, 
the cities ragged burning core 
Hole in the sky and the fish get drowned 
Something moving underground 
The world was ending slow 
on Palm Road 

Take your lover all apart 
Looking for his shipwrecked heart 
but his heart could not be found 
baby it just can't be found 
'cause they turned the lights down low 
on Palm Road 

You said it's killing me it's killing me the way we go 
But as we're running over miles they turned to gold 

So teach your darlings how to dance 
Tell them how to make romance 
And whisper things they don't know 
From a thousand years ago 

Something began to glow.... 
You said it's killing me the way we go 
I saw it coming...
