Sowing Season Songtext

von Brand New

I was losing all my friends
Was losing some to drinking and some to driving
I was losing all my friends
And didn't want them back

I am on the mend
And at least now I can say that I am trying
And I hope you will forget
The things that I still lack

Is it in you now,
To better hear the truth that you have spoken
Twisted up by knaves
To make a trap for fools?

Is it in you now,
To watch the things you gave your life to, broken?
And then stop and build them up
With worn out tools?

Yeah...

Nothing gets so bad
That a whisper from your father couldn't fix it
He whispers like a bridge
It's a river spanned

Take all that you have
And turn it into something you would miss if
Somebody threw that brick
That shattered all your plans

Yeah...

No time to get the seeds into the cold ground
It takes some time to grow anything.
Before it's all coming to an end

Before you put my body in the cold ground
Take some time and warm it with your hands
Before it's coming to an end

Do you miss the blend
Of color she left in your black and white field?
Do you feel condemned
Just for being there?

I am not your friend,
I'm just a man who knows how to feel,
I am not your friend,
Not your lover and not your father

Yeah...

No time to get the seeds into the cold ground
It takes some time to grow anything.
Before it's all coming to an end, yeah.
