All the plants are growing in much faster than last year
With our windblown faces, tan cow hides
Discarded laws by our side
We wander on the river
The seeds stick to our jeans
We point to objects
We give them names
We understand each other
We understand each other
We understand
Our brains are small and brittle
Like wild animals
We save each other food
Today we will see god
Standing at a booth
Leaving money for a tip
Our eyes have adjusted
We're just as careless now
But we notice what we can
We understand each other
We understand each other
We understand
This is our test
The palm trees
The white cement
The traffic at the school
Airliners fly over
We are at a meeting
Dressed in pink t-shirts
I ask you why we came here
You look at me, quiet
And run a finger on my forehead
We understand each other
We understand each other
We understand
