Warmer Soil and Water

Hm. This little ditty was inspired by "In the Aeroplane Over The Sea" by Neutral Milk Hotel, and "Bird Song" by Florence & the Machine. Probably inspired by Disney Nature's "Chimpanzee" as well.


The cold, loving winter has such nice weather

And like two wolves sleeping together

We dream of a time when things were better

Dreaming of a time when our ears were wetter

And like two bears we're fighting each other

Like humans, we fight like we're lovers

We hit and scratch and we all suffer

Then we stop and rest and wait for another

Just like two penguins in Antarctica

We fish in the sea

Together happily

Wondering when the sun will be seen

Whatever the reason we ignore our feelings

We can't help being in love without seeing the other bleeding

In the dead of night we hear the other breathing

It's like words from the book we're reading

And like the animals we are

We tear cubs from away from mothers

For our own comfort or survival

Whatever the reason we have for living

That doesn't matter as we both have our love

Nothing matters anymore, there's nothing up above

There doesn't need war, only our fights

There doesn't need to be anything, just our sight

And much like the buildings we have

We stand proudly

Patriotic and loudly

We'll be here till there is no more common ground for our feet

And like the moon and stars

We'll still be what we are

And shine and breathe till we are no more
