Paroles de Bare Ground

It was overcast most of the way. Clouds thick with rain that couldn’t pour. Something was building up in the water Something was building up in the rain. We were only holding out for nothing, Leaving it on bare ground When you’re only looking out for yourself, Scarcely much is around It couldn’t last, more of the same. Slashing up the walls in a canvas room Something was building up in the water Something was building up in the rain. Sleeping is a simple gesture on the roof That’s a half truth.
