lyrics

It was a hard winter
For the apple trees here
Kissed by El Niño with tropical tears
Now the fruits of labor laying half awake
Beneath the ground
And we’re counting up the fallen
Selling sorrows by the pound
You spoke of traveling
And wearing a wig
You say you didn’t
And I say you did
I swear I heard you saying something
’Bout a camouflage
About a hidden city only entered
Through a great mirage
But with your golden anchor
You’re not going far
You should be thankful
To be where you are
And here I was thinking
You had already gone
Already gone
A walk down through the meadow
There’s a buzz in my ear
A sting in my ankle
From a crushed can of beer
I’m trying to catch a breath
Of some familiar air
I’m trying to remember what it is
That brought me here
Don’t fall apart
Just look at the stars
We’re just as small
As they are far
