She's Saving Me

Lyrics

We were sitting 'round a dying fire
 Somebody lit incense
 Somebody lit a cigarette
 And passed a bottle around
 It was just strawberry season
 Backbreaking pickers in the patches
 Everythings burning down to ashes
 And down to the ground
 She's saving me
 I don't even think she knows it
 It's a strange way to show it as distant as
 Last nights dream unravels
 She's saving me
 I'm a very lost soul
 I was born with a hole in my heart
 The size of my land locked travels
 I try to put it aside
 But it's too much bigger than me
 There's a big brown hawk in the tree
 Lighting and leaving
 And there's tea leaves tossing
 Heads up pennies in my pocket
 Dead star like a rocket
 The arc of my grieving
 She's saving me
 I don't even think she knows it
 It's a strange way to show it
 As distant as last nights dream unravels
 She's saving me
 I'm a very lost soul
 I was born with a hole in my heart
 The size of my land locked travels
 The sky pours out biblical rain
 Then days so still the beauty gives you pain
 The heatwave kills the green
 And she remains unseen
 But colors up my dreams
 With all things blooming
 This is not all there is
 It's not a kingdom
 It's not an angry god
 It feels like her
 It feels like no fear
 It feels like no doubt
 It feels like inside out
 The ashes stir
 She's saving me
 I don't even think she knows it
 Such a strange way to show it as distant as
 Last nights dream unravels
 She's saving me
 I'm a very lost soul
 I was born with a hole in my heart
 The size of my land locked travels
