lyrics

Maybe all the quicksand
We were raised to fear
Was inside us all along

Maybe the ground gave way
Long before foundations laid
And a home collapsing into the dirt
Was how it was just built to be

[break]

I set a stream, I set a stream
Between the bogs-
Between the dirt and leaves

And maybe we, maybe we
Weren't meant to live like this-
But we do anyway

I built a home, set my roots
In rotted soil-
Too damaged to grow any leaves

And all that's left all that is left
Is a quiet kind of uncertainty

For

Where we're going, what we are, what are we doing
Where we'll go, how to live, how to be what's worth knowing

And a heart planted in a landslide
And the anguish of pottted plants outside
We don't know where the ground leads
Where the ground leads

But at least we've got some sun-

Light
