lyrics

Mormon Island (Alluvial Au)

They found gold here but they never found me
Underneath the temple down on main street
Where the men spent their dust and one took my life
In a town where two rivers collides

I’m still here

After the fire but before the water
They made sure to leave no one on the bottom
All the graves were lifted to higher ground
Yet where I lay they never found

I’m still here
