Son Volt Ten Second News lyrics

When you find what matters is what you feel
It arrives and it disappears
Driving down sunny Forty Four Highway
There's a beach there known for cancer waiting to happen
When you're out across the county line
The news travels slower than a ten-second buzz

And only you'll ever know
'Cause day by day it disappears
Only you'll ever know

And it's hard enough soaking up billboard signs
You scorch and drown alive never knowing why
The levee gates are open wide

There's a cough in the water and it's running into town
Bright eyes don't change stay the same
There must be an answer for what keeps it going on

But only you'll ever know
'Cause day by day it disappears
Only you'll ever know

Only you'll ever know
'Cause day by day it disappears
Only you'll ever know
