lyrics

A night at the camping site
Husbands and wives
Warming up friendships by an open fire
Children running with swordsticks in their tiny fists
Black and blue
Mothers feed with their left, get high with their right
I sit on my hands and watch them in the light
Time draws lines under our eyes
Glad I came, glad I can get away

One by one we go, as the fire dies down
The evening’s chatter now late night lullabies
Tents light up like grounded fireflies
Black and blue
Time draws lines under our eyes
Glad I came, glad I can get away
