You’re a sign, on a hill
Calling down to me
You say things are gonna play out for ya, buddy
If you believe
And you’re pushing so hard,
Spin people into stars,
And you’re telling me I’ve got to stand up and
Know what I’m standing for
You say look all around you, boy
Look at where you are
You’re an idol to oversee
Like a mile-high rosary
With arms wide open to
Take a hold of me
I’ll write a song about a girl,
Sing a prayer for the world,
Sacrifice it all for something,
Something I can’t tell
You say go outside, boy
Just see it as you will
I see dreamers with their visions,
Crystal balls and superstitions,
Palms, sky, and beaches,
Pretty people who can sing,
Parking tickets for everyone, and
Avocado everything!
I hear sex on the brown horizon,
Cranky car horns, police sirens,
Couples holding hands in the name of a green card,
I see cities made of tents and shit
On the Boulevard
A man asks for change, he says,
“Hey, life is fuckin hard,
Look all around you, boy,
Look at where you are”
There’s a sign, on a hill
And in my head
Just funny lookin letters,
Been beaten up by the weather, mhm
And it stands above me each morning
It stands above me each morning
Yeah it stands above me each morning
When that blinding, California sunshine
Spills upon my bed
I think look all around ya, boy
Look at where you are
I think look outside yourself there, boy
Look at all you are
I think look all around ya, boy
Look at where you are

I been climbing
Through the mountains, through the cold
All by myself
And sure as hell lost
And doggone far from home
Got a shadow
Got a dark shadow buried beneath the snow
I’d been trying
To get your attention for so long
I’d scream and I’d yell
And I’d jump up and down
But it seemed like you just didn’t care
Forgot what I was tryin to say
I forgot what I was doing at all
It had something to do
With a czar and fool
And why in my mind
I’m still fighting with you
I might as well be in Siberia!
Panama, or Spain,
When my life gets a hold of me
I’ll give the whole world some space
Head up into the mountains alone
Breathe the whole damn thing away
Head up into the mountains alone
And breathe the whole damn thing away
I been climbing
And I been with you all along
The snow as it melts
Shows my shadow heartfelt
And I’m thinkin it’s time I head home
Lost away in Siberia
Mmmmm
Ooooooo
