Lyrics to Echolocation



Well I walk these hills and I won't look back

I walk these hills, I swear, I won't look back

They took my car from me

Got a DUI on Monday

Well I walk these hills and I won't look back



I cover the landscape oh so slow

I cover the landscape oh so slow

She left me there standing

With no soft landing

But I know what to do with the sounds that I use



Take flight, my private exodus

Trained (in) human echolocation

Set my sights and orientation

And I'll know right where we are

Gonna follow the sounds and stars



I got nothing to show but I'm walking proud

I got nothing to show but I'm walking proud

Although I'm gonna be missing

Gonna keep on, keep on sniffin'

For the right track

Maybe not coming back



Well I make my sound and hear the sound bounce back

In the black of night, these sounds, the sounds bounce back

Use my inner compass

Like the songbirds among us

And I'll know right where we are

We gonna follow the sounds and stars



Take flight, my private exodus

Trained (in) human echolocation

Set my sights and orientation

And I'll know right where we are

Gonna follow the sounds and stars



Take flight, my private exodus

Trained (in) human echolocation

Set my sights and orientation

And I'll know right where we are

Gonna follow the sounds and stars
