Groundwire

Words and Music by Rachel Kane

get your head out
of the clouds you can't
hang around here no more.
sun is gone but the
moon is shining
get out on your own


take your things
head on down the street
sixteen years old
keep your hands on the
spinning wheel
spinning straw to gold


lookin' for the groundwire,
lookin' for the groundwire,
lookin' for a groundwire.


she got lost
down by the river
lookin' for something
no one would give her
was it out of reach
was it close at hand
was it someplace in


all the love, and anger
love and anger


lookin' for the groundwire,
lookin' for the groundwire,
lookin' for a groundwire.


those scars are they for real
or is that just the way it feels
bells ring in the neighbourhood
she'd ring one if she could


so skip a stone on the water
say a prayer for all your sons
and daughters
spinning wheels
or spinning thread
if they don't listen to a word
you said


it's only love and anger
love and anger


lookin' for the groundwire,
lookin' for the groundwire,
lookin' for a groundwire.
