Hollywood lyrics

The fires continued through the night

The kid with a bat face appeared at the window

Then disappeared into the headlights

I was halfway to the Pacific Coast

I had left you in your longing

In your yearning like a ghost

There is little room for wonder, now

And little room for wildness too

We crawl into our wounds

I’m nearly all the way to Malibu

I’m gonna buy me a house up in the hills

With a tear-shaped pool and a gun that kills

Cause they say there is a cougar that roams these parts

With a terrible engine of wrath for a heart

That she is white and rare and full of all kinds of harm

And stalks the perimeter all day long

But at night lays trembling in my arms

And I’m just waiting now for my time to come

And I’m just waiting now for my time to come

And I’m just waiting now for my place in the sun

And I’m just waiting now for peace to come

And I’m just waiting now for my time to come

And I’m just waiting now for my time to come

And we hide in our wounds

And I’m nearly all the way to Malibu

And I know my time will come one day soon

I’m waiting for peace to come

I’m nearly all the way to Malibu

Oh babe, we’re on the run, we’re on the run

Half down the Pacific Coast

Well I left you sleeping like a ghost

In your wounds

Darling your dreams are your greatest part

I carry them with me in my heart

Darling your dreams were your greatest part

I carry them with me in my heart

Somewhere, don’t know

Now I’m standing on the shore

All the animals roam the beaches

And sea creatures rise out of the sea.

And I’m standing on the shore

Everyone begins to run

The kid drops his bucket and spade

And climbs into the sun

Kisa had a baby but the baby died

Goes to the villagers says my baby’s sick

Villagers shake their heads and say to her

Better bury your baby in the forest quick

It’s a long way to find peace of mind, peace of mind

It’s a long way to find peace of mind, peace of mind

Kisa went to the mountain and asked the Buddha

My baby’s sick! Buddha said, don’t cry

Go to each house and collect a mustard seed

But only from a house where no one’s died

Kisa went to each house in the village

My baby’s getting sicker, poor Kisa cried

But Kisa never collected one mustard seed

Because in every house someone had died

Kisa sat down in the old village square

She hugged her baby and cried and cried

She said everybody is always losing somebody

Then walked into the forest and buried her child

Everybody’s losing someone

Everybody’s losing someone

It’s a long way to find peace of mind, peace of mind

It’s a long way to find peace of mind, peace of mind

And I’m just waiting now for my time to come

And I’m just waiting now for peace to come

For peace to come
