Walking on Someone Else's Name Songtext

von Noah Georgeson

Fixing a name
To a place
Is left to history
Tags are all
Hung written out
Now for a century
The Glenn's Plateaus
And barrows
All are named
Isthmuses
And the coves
All have been claimed

We're walking on
Someone else's
We're swimming in
Someone else's
We're building on
Someone else's name

Can't give a face
To a statue
Plaque
An effigy

Maps are all full
There's no wall space
In the galleries
Archipelligos
And meadows
All have names
The straits
The peaks
The passes
Have been claimed

We're walking on
Someone else's
We're swimming in
Someone else's
We're building on
Someone else's name
