lyrics

A landscape parched and forlorn
Where desperate farmers scratch and claw
For all that they have worked for
Within the window of the dawn

But he knows that he can blame it on the sun
Because he is the damage that's above
And he knows that when the rains no longer come
There'll be enough grain left for some

Take your ready meals away
It's far too late for Jenny Craig
Take your faith in gluten free cake
Take it all and throw it all away

And when the men come with guns
They will take us to our home
In the place where we were born
Before words can take form
And we'll fall into the soil
That gave us life for so many years.
