A Thousand Miles Away

from Little America by The Little Americans

/

lyrics

Well, I’m feeling nothing
‘neath the floodlights humming
Sitting on this bumper with nothing left
I didn’t come here
Looking to pick flowers
I’m lost in the showers that the rolling cloud have wept

Well, the field is empty
And although it’s tempting
Seeking out redemption for the past
It is time to gather,
Box up all our labor
Take it to the warehouse and then ship it out at last

A thousand miles away
From the field to the store.

Well, I hope you flourish
And that you are nourished
Even as you hunger for more and more
Although you don’t see me
I am all around you
Just another human born into this world poor
