lyrics

Springtime in the suburbs means
New coffee drinks
Pink Walmart shelves
And all the other Caucasians
Taking pictures of their babies wearing
Different shades of pastel

The sun’s coming out
I’m still cold
All things are new
I feel so old
Wish I could fall like a spring rain
Into the earth
Rise up again

Driving down the highway
Mountains along the skyway
Are a bright shade of green
Dogwoods exploding
Tulips unfolding
A billboard telling me to get clean

The sun’s coming out
I’m still cold
All things are new
I feel so old
Wish I could fall like a spring rain
Into the earth
Rise up again
Into the earth
Rise up again

In sweet abandoned places
Wildflowers learn what faith is
Breaking through a sidewalk crack
They trust in the earth
And believe in their worth
And remind me of all that I lack

The sun’s coming out
I’m still cold
All things are new
I feel so old
Wish I could fall like a spring rain
Into the earth
Rise up again
