lyrics

The sky looks like it's about to fall
And the birds look like they'll plummet to the ground
The leaves wilting and turning to dust
Fissures digging into the earth for comfort

This land is the only one I've ever known
I am it's one and only protector
And when I lay my head down in the sand
My tears start to flow like a vast Nimbostratus


And the pillar begin to turn to rubble
No matter where I look I can't find anyone
And the moon turns a sickly fetid red
We are all such weak little matchstick houses

When I see the fire coming down the hill
I won't even try to run away from it
And when the fire consumes me and everything I love
I'll look up and see 3 bluebirds overhead
