lyrics

I’ve been waiting for an ocean, I’ve been waiting for a sea
to break its waves inside me, to fill my wilted body.
But the sky, it’s empty and so dry and the farmers’ crops hang heavy,
while the sweat’s collecting deep inside their brows.

These highways stretch between the cornfields, carve deep within the graves
of ones with ancient footprints swept then promptly paved away, fade away
and in his mind, he knows “he’s always right”
so the oilbirds rock like cradles creaking modern lullabies to sleep inside

And you, you don’t know how thirsty you are
my boots trod the earth, cracked like a broken heart
and these sheep talk in herds while the shepherd holds his tongue
knowing many songs and phrases are only sung by mountain lungs
