lyrics

It's like we're standing in a pasture
And all around us there are novels of disaster
Pick one up I dare you
See what it does to your bunker

We're just looking at eachother
Looking at the grass
I wonder if the grass would look at us
If it could recognize
With grassy eyes

There might be a breeze I wouldn't know
I can't even feel my toes
All I notice is the in-between
The space but not the size

We're just looking at eachother
Looking at the grass
I wonder if the grass would look at us
If it could recognize
With grassy eyes

Written all down in these books in the field
Prophets in fear of the future
They couldn't be writing about us right
They couldn't be writing about us right

But you haven't said a word to me
Since you flipped that cover back
And you peeked inside
Can't you be more auspicious
I'm not made of hopes and wishes

I hope you're finished reading soon
I'll be looking at the grass
I wonder if the grass would look at us
If it could recognize
With grassy eyes
