Breaking the Yearlings - Shearwater

Change

The river is blocked

The road is hot

The sky is blazing

Black smoke on the rise

The weather holds

Until it’s on you

And then suddenly breaks

I curl right back into the sound

I take one breath and spiral down

And you not watching the road

Or watching the flood stage rise

And we are yearlings

Not watching the tide run out

Till what the daylight hides

Is known

Yearlings

Not watching the tide run out

We are yearlings (I curl right back into the sound)

Feeling the blood break down

Yearlings (I take one breath and spiral down) (The sky is blazing)

Not watching the tide run out

We are yearlings (I curl right back into the sound) (Until it’s on you)

Feeling the blood break down

Yearlings (I take one breath and spiral down)

Not watching the tide run out

We are yearlings (I curl right back into the sound)

Feeling the blood break down
