Josh Dillard - The Natural World

When I Was a Child

When I was a child I stood and watched the farmer burn his field
I saw the snake that bit the heel of the woman who worked the wheel

And with a worried mind, I watched shadows moving slowly from afar
Counting all them cars on the boulevard

I don't really know this world, I don't really know this world
I don't really know this world, pull the curtain from my eyes

When I was a child I dreamt I saw the axe that fell the tree
It was never rooted in history, just smoke and mirrors

Now that I'm a man, I see nothing's gonna change
When we're left to our own ways, we remain the same

I don't really know this world, I don't really know this world
I don't really know this world, pull the curtain from my eyes

I ain't seen nothing but the wind and rain
Til I looked through the eye of the hurricane
