lyrics

today i found you breathing
3000 miles away
you stole a car and cut your hair short
and drove out to bristol bay

there was canvas stretched and ready
and you danced lilac over azure and slate
if at all Id paint the night sky
across the features of your face

but my hands were made null and feeble
from wintered wood and infertile clay
instead im dragging reeds across the pavement
in celebration of our bodies bleeding out on the highway
im holding flint and tinder hoping that the frost finally melts away
id keep you if i could keep you warm

Ink, salt, silence, lead me to the harbor
and i will come knocking in the months around the cold holidays
fever, sap, skin i know you like the moan of heat pipes
and your first word was your mothers maiden name
