Wild from Analog Sessions by Daisy O'Connor

I'm burning down
Breaking bones
Cooling down
Drying out
I'm a field run fallow
Under February snow
I can't find a hand to hold
Couldn't keep me from the cold

My heroes aren't heroes
My demons dealing doubles through the night

Remember you were made wild
Rows and ridges fence the mind
Grow your hair out in the rain
Dig your roots down deeper in the dirt and find
You are right on time

I planted seeds
Let them go
Walked away
Let them grow
You and me
We are trees
Crossing roots and standing tall
Wrapping branches round the fall

Our heroes aren’t heroes
Writers of words, what's that worth?

Remember you were made wild
Roll in ribbon grass and rhymes
Take your clothes off in the day
Let the sunlight soak your face
You'll be alright
Children of the wild

Now the drought is over
Let it rain, let it cry
Til springtime shines

Remember you were made wild
Rows and ridges fence the mind
Grow your hair out in the rain
Dig your roots down deeper in the dirt and find
You are right on time
