Dirt
This song could easily be considered one of my favorite songs by Phish. This ballad sung by Trey is about the desire to be seperated from "mainstream society" as Pharmer's puts it.
The song doesn't need and hasn't received any changes since is debut. It was played a decent amount of times in '97, and a little less for each year. Overall, though, its place is best on the album, Farmhouse.
Washed on the shore
Never hear your voice again
I'd like to live beneath the dirt
A tiny space to move and breathe is all that I would ever need
I want live beneath the dirt
where I am free from push and shove like all those swarming up above
beneath your heals I'll spend my time
I'll wiggle in the earth and dew
and somtimes I will think of you
And if you ever think of me
Kneel down and kiss the earth
and show me what this thought is worth
I'll never hear your voice again
