Original song written by Carter

lyrics

Look at the fields
Look at them quaking
Look at the grass
Look how it shakes against the wind
I'd like to pretend that I'm not all alone

Look at the cars
Look at them driving
But I'm standing here
Thinking and crying, there's no one left
You don't care anyway, so I'll keep it to myself

Look at the people
In New York City
No time to waste
No time to pity the poor, poor souls
With nothing left

The barren, fallow fields
That's just how I feel
I look to the sky as I kneel
I'm starting to think this is real

The coursing water cuts deep
This learning curve is too steep
I lay on my bed and I weep
Wonder if I'll awake from this sleep

We've been stuck in this rut for so long
We find solace and safety in song
It's more than the timing that's wrong
I guess this is where I belong

Think of the spirits
Searching for refuge
Nothing to give
Nothing to offer to the world
That took it all

Think of those moments
At 3 in the morning
You question your life
What are you really here for?
Nothing seems to fit but you live it anyways

Think of your family
Think of your friends
Think of the people
That love you and care without end
They are there for you and they will be every day

The barren, fallow fields
That's just how I feel
I look to the sky as I kneel
I'm starting to think this is real

The coursing water cuts deep
This learning curve is too steep
I lay on my bed and I weep
Wonder if I'll awake from this sleep

We've been stuck in this rut for so long
We find solace and safety in song
It's more than the timing that's wrong
I guess this is where I belong
