Lyrics
Locust Years
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He built his life
Wwith his hands
Put all he had
Into the land
They came from nowhere
On a cold dark wind
The harvest disappeared
But he survived
The locust years
It hurt to hear
her baby cry
Worked two jobs
To get by
Convinced herself
Sshe never needed a man
Holding back the tears
She survived
The locust years
When I lay next to you
In your arms
I know the world
Can do us no harm
And like the thorns
Protect the rose
I am safe with you
I know a place inside a dream
Where rivers
Run through fields of green
A quiet valley
That never lives in fear
I will meet you there
If we survive the locust years
If we survive the locust years
