lyrics

The land is dry and the day's getting longer, but tonight we walk down by the fields so I can feel the wind between my arms. As my disorders settle in, I lose the courage to talk, but when the clocks move back I'm on it because I want in.

These weathered hands, they serve me well. When they break beneath the weight I'll carry them as well.

I'm waiting for someone to find a cure for everything in me that takes over and control. As the world presses on again and I'm left here, the things I use to love grow old.

These blistered feet are tired and so cold, but they're just extensions of my small and weary bones.

I'm becoming a stranger, but it's not the strangest thing to happen round here. If you could wait out the weather I'll be back in time to find you my long lost friend.

And I've always been taught that if I have to fight a war, it's best to be on the side that's going to win, but how can I feel alive when I'm someone else's choices. To me that just ain't living.

My aching skin is thin and so frayed, but it's worth the gentle reminders of better days.
