Down On The Ground - Sea Power

Where I come from, silvery trees

Diamond on leaf, can’t you see it?

Why did I leave?

The clipping of wings

The draping of kings

I was here long before you

Now kindly leave

This was far far away

And I knew I would not stay

Down on the ground

I’ll be found

I opened up my mouth

I didn’t make a sound

I could not cut you down, down, down

I was a girl and you were a boy

With innocent thoughts getting colder

Than it was before

This was long long ago

And I knew we’d never know

Down on the ground

I’ll be found

I opened up my mouth

I didn’t make a sound

I could not cut you down, down, down
