anthills lyrics and music by adam stewart

wind-chimes made with human minds,
remind me that i'm small again,
mountains cleared like little tunnels,
will we churn and stall and bustle
a triple tear ant: i'm nice, i'm selfish, i'm lost to all
with groups i am, with groups i'm not, empty and alone
i rot and fall
the fireant inside your yard you tried to poison mend,
i'm the ant that bit your kneel at the funeral for a friend
let me take the wheel again
im the splints beneath your shin,
the cancered flesh inside your skin,
the dried out ink inside your pen,
im the candles fire wouldnt take- placed atop your birthday cake,
the burned out lights strung in your tree
the scars that scab below your knee
im the wine stain on your shirt,
the pain you feel when you get hurt
im the words you say to curse
i'm the coffin in our hearse
come across a whiskey mash, and pour a few drinks more
cause all the world's my little ore, watch the mine forever more
im the blister in your heel,
im the anthills in your field
im the holes inside our shield,
im the anthills in your field
