Shearwater - Breaking the Yearlings

Change, the river is blocked
The road is hot
The sky is blazing
Black smoke on the rise
The weather holds until it's on you
And then suddenly breaks

I curl right back into the sound
I take one breath and spiral down
And you, not watching the road
Or watching the flood stage rise
And we are yearlings
Now watching the tide run out
Till what the daylight hides
Is known

Yearlings
Now watching the tide run out
We are yearlings (I come right back into the sound)
Feeling the blood break down

Yearlings (I take one breath and spiral down)
Now watching the tide run out (the road is hot, the sky is blazing)
We are yearlings (The weather holds until it's on you, I curl right back into the sound)
Feeling the blood break down (and suddenly breaks, and suddenly breaks)

Yearlings (I take one breath and spiral down)
Now watching the tide run out (the road is hot, the sky is blazing)
We are yearlings (I curl right back into the sound)
Feeling the blood break down (and suddenly breaks, and suddenly breaks)
