Soil - Trace Mountains

Oh, we open all our windows

To let the light crawl in

Reverberating morning noise of dogs and car horns singing

And when it’s time for rising, the daylight is softly peeking over

The trees in the park outside and it is opening, opening

To a full glass of water filled in some seconds gone past

While I’m grasping for the cup in the moment, it’s bleeding away

Oh, a new yet returning feeling

As a dream fades out

And I’m picking up the pieces of it by singing it aloud

And soil is the song bleeding from everything around me

And the light in the trees outside

Well, it is opening, opening

To a new day revealing just how completely fucked we are

Yet, I’ve planted my seed and blanketed, blanketed, blanketed them

I’ve started praying for germination

I’ve started praying for germination

I’ve started praying for germination

I’ve started praying, I’m praying

Oh, a dog in the captain’s belly

Will bark 'til we open him up

And we’re pulling out a scalpel to incise him

And rummage through guts, deceit and everything you’d need to be that hungry

He is flailing like a fish on the line

And he is opening, opening

To a new day revealing soil is the song bleeding from everything
