[Lyric] Eastern Standard Time (The Accidentals)

The deepest dark water and the rockiest shore
The tall white pine and the iron ore
Windfall apples with a coat of rime
Eastern Standard Time

Ironwood to Sault Ste. Marie
The great Gitchi-Gami, the Superior sea
The copper summit and the Dead River climb
Eastern Standard Time

Far beyond the reach of light
The shipwrecks hold their secrets tight
Somewhere at the bottom is an old pipeline
Eastern Standard Time

The light of the stars and the falling snow
We shiver in the still of the sweet dark cold
The Three Fires burn from the old bloodlines
And beneath the water as dark as wine
The past is sleeping but still it shines
Eastern Standard Time
