I am a song
That has been woven from chaos
And I follow straight rivers
I am irretrievably lost
I am pulled on through your veins
A ferrous vessel built of meat
Carried on ever cresting waves to no better destiny
And my heart is bathed in lightning
My blood is laced with onion power
With this sunset the greatest days days are truly over
The awakening glass mountains
Biting into apple skin
Bursting and sweet I swim back to you in my sleep
Some kind of poison leeched into the soil here
And it bleeds into the seeds in this mud
And it feels like bleach runs in your blood
Blood beats in your eardrums
Like an army of feet marching on
Through the dusky air, the evening sun,
The sky bearing its teeth and gums
And you know it does too much to me
In an insular world you're a conquering queen
In your coat and your crown and your hospital gown
Seven days, severed ties
Set in stone for the night
Cause I broke when I fell
Do you think you could tell?
And I used to believe anything could be healed
But now that was just me searching some kind of peace
Follow four fallow years
We never could come clean completely
We never could come clean
But the rain saturated the dirt here at the end of a cursed year
I want a river to run through me
Carve out a valley, deep, deep, deep
Make me shallow
Make me empty
Make me clean
I want a river to run through me
Carving a valley deep deep deep but
It overcomes
It wins the day
It talks me round
To ancient shames
I am naked I am shaking
I am possessed with the feeling
I am finally making peace with all the broken parts of me
There is no song
Since all was silent
There is no one around for miles
And miles and miles and miles
And miles and miles and miles and miles
And miles and miles and miles and miles
And miles and miles and miles and miles
And miles and miles and miles and miles
And miles
