Wild Rose
[Verse 1]
Wild rose in the heather
Didn't ask if I could take your sweater
Before I left with it on
Wild parliaments around you
Some winter loneliness surrounds you
Your friends are far but they're not dead
I can see the map with different shading
Pictures all over the table
Each one from a different time
While the months turn into days, I
Practice tracing over page
So I'll always know how
[Bridge]
She simply had to suffer
She simply had to cry
Her hands were calloused leather
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
While I wasted my December
Pushing blocks and pulling levers
They stole a billion bucks from you
The wilderness that I got caught in
Diana in a giant's locket
Her fingerprints on the inside
I can see the ground so subtly shaking
They're running all over the table
Leaving tracks for you to find
Wild rose in the heather
Didn't ask if I could take your sweater
Before I put it on
