Digging, digging

Clouds surround us, thick with rain
Where do we go, what do we do
Clouds of anger, clouds of pain
Clouds of dust, of me and you

Dust that's stirred up by our digging
Through the piles of what went wrong
Through the act of digging, digging
Our hearts and minds and arms grow strong

Dams we once built are slowly shrinking
Crying, laughter, reaching, hurt
Rain and stream and talk and thinking
Every drop erodes the dirt

Sweet release flows like a river
Vast, deep, far as eyes can see
Past rock and pebble, sigh and shiver
Towards the neverending sea
