Okkervil River – No Hidden Track lyrics

What if there's no hidden track
No journey there, no journey back
The rain falls down upon the same old grass
The rain falls down, the rain falls down, the rain falls down

What if there's no secret word
No matter what you thought you heard
I asked the author’s son and he offered
No secret word, no secret word, no hidden track

But my words left me
And my heart it just went slack, just went slack
When I saw it passing
Just what if it can't come back, it can't come back
There’s no hidden track

What if there's no trap door down
The cold hard floor, the cold hard ground
The cold hard car, come here back into town
No trap door down, any trap door down, no hidden track

My words left me
And my heart it just went slack, just went slack
When I saw it passing
Just what if they can't come back, it can't come back
There’s no hidden track
No hidden track

But for all of us and all of you
There are some things we can't see into
‘Cause from the other side no light shows through
I hope that there's a hidden track
It feels like there's a hidden track
