Songtext Hard to be young Strand Of Oaks

Hard to be young

It began, it was a beautiful day
Two hands, two feet
We grabbed everything we'd like to eat
You grabbed the crackers, I grabbed the pop
We found trees, and then we shut up

It’s a lonely time to be young
It’s a lonely time

Then it was night, we heard the sound of machines
You started crying, I cracked another pop
There was screeching and searching
Screeching, they’re looking for us
There was screeching and searching
Screeching, they’re looking for us

It’s a lonely time to be young
It’s a lonely time

It’s a window, a window, it's a window
It’s a window, a window, it's a window

So we left our wonderful tree
Two hands, two feet
And the searchlights, they found both of us
You went first, I started to run

It’s a lonely time to be young
It’s a lonely time

Cornfields, Indiana breeze
It’s hard to fight, when you’re against machines
Cornfields, Indiana breeze
It’s a window, a window, it's a window
It’s a window, a window, it's a window

Two hands, two feet
Two hands, two feet
Two hands, two feet
Two hands
