We found that everything we know
was counting that the ground moves passionate and slow
we sung a couple honest parables of promise
Hearing words we all missed
that change how they all go

We chose a direction and we ran
We saw a way to bargain with everything we had
We sung a broken series of metaphors and theories
Screaming “can you hear these,
Tell us we’re not mad”

then the thunder and water was making us shout
“guess we’re mothers and fathers, we’ll figure it out”
Stay in bed a bit more
we ain’t found some new shore

We froze in place like it was true
We knew the world had just changed but nothing on it moved
We sung our favorite questions that felt more like confessions
Dodging all the lessons
That we already knew

We fought the weather and the stars
We threatened every fortune that wasn’t in the cards
We sung about our gravestones, crossing different timezones
People in our old phones
and not caring where they are

then the thunder and water was making us shout
“guess we’re mothers and fathers, we’ll figure it out”
Stay in bed a bit more
we ain’t found some new shore

and I, oh I’m trusting in an ancient thing
and I, I gotta be fine holding on a single string
tied to everything
tied to everything

We’ll mourn for everything we know
we’ll wonder if the sky moves passionate and slow
We’ll sing a song of leaving, laughing while we’re grieving
happy to be breathing
and certain that we’ll grow

then thunder and water will making us all shout
“guess we’re mothers and fathers, we’ll figure it out”
Stay in bed a bit more
we ain’t found some new shore
oh no no no no no no lol
