lyrics

Over the years, they told you the fields were an enclave, inescapable
They kept me here, arms folded to keep out the warm days, like a paper doll

But what have you got in your pocket, my darling,
And what have you got in your hands, sir?
A stutter, a statement, a careless replacement for an answer?

The bitter bark must taste so much sharper without sugar to make it palatable
But I know each part of each acre here far too well now to take another trail

But what have you got in your pocket, my darling,
and why is your breath so restrained now?
The weight of the plate on my lungs, it is aching beneath the patience of a stranger

I will let you in my larder
Like a burglar in the garden
Climbing over all the hedges

And I will take you so much farther
That you'll never beg my pardon
or anyone else's

I will let you in my larder
Like a burglar in the garden
Climbing over all the hedges

And I will take you so much farther
That you'll never beg my pardon
or anyone else's
