Signal - Sylvan Esso

Little birdie making car alarm sounds

In the tree next to your house

Little baby know to smile for the picture

Then go back to drawing that flower

And a smokey chimney too

And an arrow pointing at their room

And the stars above

Was that a satellite you drew, my love?

It’s a signal in the noise

It’s a bell in a mine

It’s a black dog in a junkyard

Gonna chase you down in time

Chase you down in time

Can you catch up to the cars on the highway?

Run them down

Can you throw yourself off of an airplane?

Breath ripped out

While you showboat

While you slow float

While the Earth gets large and loud

Are you breathing now?

Here’s the ground

Don’t you want to catch you

Don’t you want to catch you

Make you feel your pulse

Make your feet fly

Don’t you want to catch you

Don’t you want to catch you

Drag you down in the dirt

Make you feel alive

It’s a signal in the noise

It’s a bell in a mine

It’s a black dog in a junkyard

Gonna chase you down in time

It’s a signal in the noise

It’s a bell in a mine

It’s a black dog in a junkyard

Gonna chase you down in time

It’s a signal in the noise

It’s a bell in a mine

It’s a black dog in a junkyard

Gonna chase you down in time
