Deep Down Here

A brakeman's holler through the distance
Wakes an old refrain
While a lantern light shines up the side
Burning kerosine flame

Like a jungle full of mystery
There ain't no leaving here
For the roots go deep
Below your feet and break off at the knees.

Chorus:
What is it in the motion
What moves outside the frame
What's hiding in the bushes
Is wild and can't be tamed
Deep down here

Honeysuckle tied like ribbons
Through your summer hair
While in the parlor speaks a rose so sweet
Till there comes a crashing down
