Half Acre Lyrics - Singles - Hem

I am holding half an acre 

Torn from the map of Michigan 

And folded in this scrap of paper 

Is a land I grew in 

Think of every town you've lived in 

Every room, you lay your head 

And what is it that you remember? 

Do you carry every sadness with you 

Every hour your heart was broken 

Every night the fear and darkness 

Lay down with you 

A man is walking on the highway 

A woman stares out at the sea 

And light is only now just breaking 

So we carry every sadness with us 

Every hour our heart were broken 

Every night the fear and darkness 

Lay down with us 

But I am holding half an acre 

Torn from the map of Michigan 

I am carrying this scrap of paper 

That can crack the darkest sky wide open 

Every burden taken from me 

Every night my heart unfolding 

My home
