about

In the ruins of Seabed City, in a church where little birds shift and rustle in the rafters, Sister Rust addresses her congregation. You can listen to the podcast at friendsatthetable.net or on youtube at streamfriends.tv

lyrics

the waves used to roll above
they're quiet now
the ships used to fly above
they're quiet now
the chatter of radios
the finest reality shows
forget about all of those
they're quiet now

a long time ago
the starlight strait stopped running
and here in the dome
the mesh's no longer humming
so pull up a chair
and sit beside the fire
it's quiet out here
at last
you can listen to the choir

we're blowing like dust in the sky
and that's fine
all things turn to rust by and by
and that's fine
and metal creaks overhead
the air in the dome tastes of lead
the wind cuts across the seabed
and that's fine

a long time ago
the peace flew on broken wings
so here in the dome
we stick to the order of things
so pull up a chair
and sit beside the fire
it's quiet out here
at last
you can listen to the choir
