No Hidden Track - Okkervil River

What if there’s no hidden track

No journey there, no journey back

The rain falls down upon the same old grass

The rain falls down

The rain falls down

The rain falls down

What if there’s no secret word

No matter what you thought you heard

I asked the other son and he averred

No secret word

No secret word

No hidden track

But my words left me

And my heart it just went slack

Just went slack

When I saw it passing

'Cause what if it can’t come back

It can’t come back

There’s no hidden track

What if there’s no trapdoor down

The cold hard floor, the cold hard ground

The cold hard car commute back into town

No trapdoor down

No trapdoor down

No hidden track

My words left

And my heart it just went slack

Just went slack

When I saw it passing

'Cause what if they can’t come back

They can’t come back

There’s no hidden track

No hidden track

But for all of us and all of you

There’s some things we can’t see into

'Cause from the other side no light shows through

I hope that there’s a hidden track

It feels like there’s a hidden track
