Lyrics
Six months later
On your artwork
The ditch where I played as a child
Sometimes flooding
Sometimes drying out
If I was lucky
It was covered in snow
If I was luckier
The snow was not yellow
The ditch where my foremothers
Planted an invasive species of flower
Which now is hard to get rid of
I, I used to love them
Used to pick them and admire
The only purple within sight
The favourite pee spot
Of a countless number of dogs
You would know
I showed you around
I'd do the same to you
Yes, I would use you too
But you never showed me around
I don't have the ammunition
Or the inside information
Ditch me
And use my ditch for your art
Detach it from my heart
Ditch me
And use my ditch for your art
Detach me from your heart
And never show me around
You never showed me around
You'll never show me around
You never showed me around
Six months later
On your artwork
The field where I played as a child
Springtime come
I'd watch the cows run wild leaving the barn
The calves jumping up and down
One or two or three would always crawl under the fence
And find the ditch and find the road and find our house
I, I used to love them
Used to name them
Used to wonder
Where they disappeared to in that big ass truck
Ditch me
And use my ditch for your art
Detach it from my heart
Ditch me
And use my ditch for your art
Detach me from your heart
And never show me around
You never showed me around
You'll never show me around
You never showed me around
I, I used to love you
Used to dream
And now I wonder
Where I disappeared to
When did I turn abstract?
I, I used to love you
Used to dream
And now I wonder
Where I disappeared to
When did I turn abstract?
I, I used to love you
Used to dream
And now I wonder
Where I disappeared to
When did I turn abstract?
