Orenda Fink - No Evolution Lyrics

It was the year of the floor
It was the hand of god
The strength of a monsoon
A revolution

I put my hand in the cup
Drew my name from the mud
I had changed it once before
But that didn't change things

We still came
We still come
And we still go
But I can't live without you, though

I put my face to the glass
But it's you that stares back
I had changed it once before
But that didn't change things

The year of the drought
It was the hand of god
The absence of water
Made us fearful

After all I could find
Were the wells of my mind
I had changed it once before
But that didn't change things

No evolution
No evolution

I know there's a circle of death and birth
But I won't wait and lose you to this big black earth
I say

No evolution
No evolution

I put my hand on your face
With men laws to replace
The ones that say that
We must leave each other one day

I said

No evolution
No evolution
No evolution

We still came
We still came
And we still go
