Map in the Embers

from The Place Called Home by Vincent Teetsov

lyrics

There’s a map in the embers
From where I’m sitting around the fire.
I remember when it happened.
Seemed like it’d be over
In just a while.

It’ll be over by Christmas.
Or summer?
Whatever you say...

By the time the boots were stomping,
I’d thought I’d heard it all before.
We were on the edge of the longest war.

Never seen so much division.
We’re all waiting on the ticking dial.
A people split from top to bottom.
Guess I’m just too young to know of other broken times.

Tomorrow’s verdict we’re all waiting,
Clicking refresh every hour.

Could we have imagined
In that blustery age 40 years ago?

With guns and cash sweeping the young away.
Now we're back again to square one.

There’s a map in the embers.
I hope it’ll be over
In just a while.

Never seen so much division.
We’re all waiting on the ticking dial.
A people split from top to bottom.
Guess I’m just too young to know of other broken times.


Never seen so much division.
We’re all waiting on the ticking dial.
A people split from top to bottom.
Guess I’m just too young to know of other broken times.
