INDIGO GIRLS LYRICS - Soon Be To Nothing

"Soon Be To Nothing"



Kelly Mountain road saw a heavy load

With a sagging heart and a break apart

Voices in me stood as thick as thieves

With no sympathy for the beggars art

I have passed these pines 'bout a million times effortlessly

Now I grip the wheel fear is what I feel

At the slow unraveling of me



You tell me it's temporary it's a matter of time

By God don't you think I know it's in my mind

It's right over left and healing the then

I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when



Well the way I flee on my crooked feet

Barn happy horse on a one-track course

Then I self despise cryin' out my eyes

'Cause the happy trail led me to remorse

But the road is long and the song is gone

I blow empty in my cicada shell

If I saw my choice I might find my voice

But I don't know when and I just can't tell



You tell me it's temporary just a matter of time

By God don't you think I know it's in my mind

It's right over left and healing the then

I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when



Deep behind my face is a safer place

But old gears are hitched tight to the gate

It's a daily grind waiting to unwind

Till I hear that click that unlocks my fate



So tell me it's temporary it's a matter of time

By God don't you think I know it's in my mind

It's right over left and healing the then

I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when

I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when

I'll soon be to nothing but I don't know when
