american opera - sand & seed lyrics

[verse 1]
well, well, this house i made out of bricks
is acting more like sand
and when i try to pick it up
starts slipping through my hands
the door’s been kicked in, window’s broken
walls are caving in
the foundation’s sinking, i’ve been thinking
there’s no saving it

[pre-chorus 1]
i can’t let it go
this is my home

[chorus]
maybe the songs i sing
are so i remember what life brings
life sings its songs to me
so i, i am not afraid, yeah

[verse 2]
well, i’ve been working in these fields
for as long as i can recall
but every time i see the growth
the spring, it turns to fall
well, god made this ground fickle
and in turn, hard to control
and now i’ve found myself in a pickle
thanks to my sins and empty soul
this dirt is dry as bone
and it hasn’t rained for days
and all of the clouds up in the sky
are blocking all of the sun’s rays
buried deep into the ground
amidst the worms and dirt
sits a lonely seed i found
i wonder what it’s worth

[pre-chorus 2]
i’ll make this seed grow
all on my own

[chorus]
maybe the songs i sing
are so i remember what life brings
life sings its songs to me
so i, i am not afraid

[bridge]
well, i bet if these walls could talk, they wouldn’t
they wouldn’t say anything at all
and i bet if these roots could walk, they wouldn’t
they would just stumble and they would fall

[pre-chorus 3]
i can’t let it go
this is my home
i’ll make this seed grow
all on my own

[chorus]
maybe the songs i sing
are so i remember what life brings
life sings its songs to me
so i, i am not afraid
maybe the songs i sing
are so i remember what life brings
life sings its songs to me
so i, i am not afraid
