Lyrics Where Something Wild Still Grows - The Pines

Where Something Wild Still Grows

Oh, the mercury is on its knees
Some ghost comes along to light the stars
My heart is the weight of unclaimed freight
And that’s as far, and I see how far
And we’re out of the wild and into the tame
And even God has moved indoors
Love is fired at us from point blank range
There’s no shelter in a perfect storm
So come to me
Through the trees
Past the city
Beyond the glow
We’ll find a place
In this world
Where something wild
Still grows
So I pledge allegiance to the land
Despite the USA
If we format our dreams to fit our screens
We’ll have less and less to say
And the sunrise over kiss is so easy to miss
Have to show up in person in old time
And, oh man, what a mess
How things get blessed
Across the universe
On one thing dime
So come to me
Through the trees
Past the city
Beyond the glow
We’ll find a place
In this world
Where something wild
Still grows
Run to me
Through the trees
Past the city
Beyond the glow
We’ll find a place
In this world
Where something wild
Still grows
