These United States - Water & Wheat lyrics

Artist: These United States

album: What Lasts


Clouds sweep down from the
Heavens to the wheat, the town
Sleeps in the thick heat of the eve
Clouds go wherever I breathe
Water washes over armies beckoning red rover
Fast erasing all the castles claimed in chalk
Water goes wherever I walk
Clouds go wherever I breathe
Water wherever I walk
Ho!
There's patterns of heavens and Earth
There's wind and there's water and wheat
And the rest is just talk

Winds whip strong, stoop to
Carry me along, into a night I might not otherwise have known
Winds'll warm you right down to the bone
And out across the North Sea
You can hang your soul like laundry
You can write your love on beach trees in the breeze
The world can drop you dumb down on your knees
Wind warms me down to my bones
World drops me dead as I walk
Ho!
This wind and this water and wheat
These dreams under wide skies cut free
All the rest is just talk
All the rest is just jaws
Their effect and their cause
A futility of claws
Carving blood into laws
Claiming castles in chalk
But I continue to walk
But I continue to walk
I won't look back or balk
I continue to walk
I continue to walk
I continue to walk!
