Barren field
Your weeds are tall and plenty
And I think they’re flowering
Casting shadows onto the stricken land
The weeping sand

The roots they said
Were borne out in your infancy
And there was nothing you could do
I’m a famine unto myself
We feel it too

But we do not know
What we do not know
’Til it’s too late

The construction crew
Will be here in the morning
They’ll scrape it out of you
And lay a new foundation
To hide you away

But I know you see (yeah, stay hidden, yeah)
That all these pretty colors (stay hidden, yeah)
Don’t really mean a thing (stay hidden)
You just have no use
Beyond being used (You’re so useless! Useless! Useless!)

But we do not know
What we do not know
’Til it’s too late

Help me God
Put it all behind me
Thought I saw a tree
Sometimes I think it’s dying
Water me
