In a Field Songtext
von Dumaresq

So what did you learn?
I guess not to borrow
What I′ve no hope to return
And what did you leave?
A smoke haze
And a cavalcade of dunces
Fixated with dancing

It's true
I was in love
But with process
Never what I could produce
So I was eaten away
And reborn in green
In parts of land
The sea forgot to claim

And I have a pagan rejoice
Soak my fields in man-made rain
It still rocks the living cradle
It still functions just the same


I know what I′ve left
I killed a lot of things
So I could save the rest
Has he asked who I am?
Does he wonder?
Whose intangible hand he reaches for
In my yearly hologram?
And if he needs anything
He has the pick of the spoils
All the riches I collect
But not things I can't give
Not the thing that I ain't

And I have a pagan rejoice
Soak my fields in man-made rain
It still rocks the living cradle
It still functions all the same
And I raked out all the ashes
From this microstate I′ve made
I′ve been warring my whole lifetime
So to peace I am estranged

So what did you learn?
That I could do it better
If ever I return
