Stew of Us Lyrics

Peeling squash the day slips by

Quiet thoughts beneath a heavy sky

The warmth we shared it used to stay

But now it fades just drifts away

The clock keeps ticking the fire burns low

A bitter taste is all we know

Cooking feels so heavy now

Like a stew that's boiling out

What once was sweet a perfect blend

Is breaking down too hard to mend

At the sink I stand alone

Our laughter's gone it's turned to stone

A single word could spark the flame

But silence grows and we're to blame

The table's empty the air turns thin

Where did we lose? Where do we begin?

Cooking feels so heavy now

Like a stew that's boiling out

What once was sweet a perfect blend

Is breaking down too hard to mend

Yet in the steam a glow remains

A flicker of love through time and pain

The scent of hope still lingers here

A quiet call so close so near

Cooking feels so heavy now

But I can feel it turning 'round

The stew of us though scarred and worn

Can heal again be newly born

And maybe someday like this stew

We'll simmer soft we'll taste brand new

Around the table hand in hand

We'll find our way back home again
