Tall Whites in Dust ( Radio )

[Verse 1] Out past the fence line Past the salt and shale We found them in the hard light Where the dry winds wail Tall as the dead pines White as old bone dust Small nose, wide bright eyes And the truth hit us hard [Pre-Chorus] Oh prey to God If you see them, know it They don't move like us They move like thunder Silence on the forehead A wordless spark And you feel them read you In the dark [Chorus] Tall Whites in the dust Tall Whites in the dust If you saw them, you'd know They're real, they're real Tall Whites in the dust Tall Whites in the dust Blue eyes, bright and cold We were never alone [Verse 2] They said they were here Way back then Midway through the ice Fifteen thousand B.C. With the Grays in the shadows Running side by side Teacher in the white glow Floating off the floor Harry was the man's name That's what they let slip Names we could understand Like a blade on the tongue [Pre-Chorus] Oh prey to God If you see them, know it They work with the others And the others know Not from the sky alone Not from one path They've been walking our dust Long, long past [Chorus] Tall Whites in the dust Tall Whites in the dust If you saw them, you'd know They're real, they're real Tall Whites in the dust Tall Whites in the dust Blue eyes, bright and cold We were never alone [Bridge] Two thousand years Maybe more And they still stand straight Like a blade in a storm Running so fast You can't follow the shape Then the white glow lifts And the room goes still [Final Chorus] Tall Whites in the dust Tall Whites in the dust If you saw them, you'd know They're real, they're real Tall Whites in the dust Tall Whites in the dust Blue eyes, bright and cold We were never alone Tall Whites in the dust Tall Whites in the dust Pray if you see them Pray if you see them
