Whirlpool

(album: Three Weeks No Songs - 2020)

When I was a kid it was cumulonimbus
And now it's mammatus
Before the storm comes

Still haven't been to the Rio Grande
Still haven't bought a home
Still can't last at a 9 to 5
Cause I like to make my own good time
Don't you like to make your own good time?

When I was a girl it was whirlpools
Now it's waterfalls
Before the storm comes

Still haven't crossed the states by train
Still haven't made my bed
Still can't name all trees I see
But I'd like to try and reach for it
Won't you try and reach for it?

In this time alive
What could we be?
If we decide to share my
Would you come home to me?

I'm sorry
I feel you
When life gets rough and you're confused
Whatcha say?
Whatcha do?
A whirlpool
