Winter Wheat

[Verse 1]

Woke up in a parking lot

Air mattresses gone flat

The sun selecting targets for the shadows to attack

So make a visor with your hand

Squint at where you're from

A lonely line of buildings you can block out with your thumb

Salute the way we tried

[Verse 2]

And no one knows we're anywhere we're not supposed to be

So stay a while and watch the wind throw patterns on a field

This crop withstood the months of snow

Scavengers and blight

Tuned every year towards a tiny lengthening of light

Found a way to rise

[Bridge]

We know this world is good enough because it has to be

Allow the hope that we will meet again out in the winter wheat

Find me in the winter wheat
