Though I tried so hard
I couldn't find the road
To the fire I saw every day
But I didn't know what was burning
I saw it every day
I didn't think of it
But when you act like that
You'll never get it back
I tried so hard to find it
But I couldn't see through the trees
So I went down to the burn scar
And I saw it through ghosts without leaves
And then I faced the wind
There wasn't anyone
This is a sacred place I know behind the view
I tried to walk with you
Because you want me to
Better to walk with it
the moon and my spirit

I wanna live in geologic time
I'd feel my limbs twist and unwind
I wanna live the way that aspens do
When they're staring at the moon and got nothing to do
I looked away cause I was so confused
I went back to my cowgirl blues
How I cried at the singing in the room
But I cannot show it to you
In the cold morning I felt so clean
I washed my sorrow out of me
I am not so separate from the birds
who bless me with their singing

Sympathy

You always say the sweetest things to me
But I guess I shouldn't take it so personally
Here in my mind and in my memories
Nothing can hurt me there
Here in my bed under the pillows
Nothing can hurt me there
I live by knowing that everything will die
Even the love between you and I
Hand in hand we burned it down together
I couldn't stop the fire
Our curse of creation
The look in your eye
You always say the same thing to me
But I guess I should have more sympathy

Jealousy
03:43

My jealousy is my sickness
Thunder turns to bitterness
I thought I was the witness
To the loneliness of your lightning
I wish I could control you
You are like my phantom leg
I want to know where I'm going
You just won't participate
I sat down by the riverbed
Wondering why you don't love me
I know you love me in a way
It just doesn't feel the same
I wish I could control you
You are like my phantom leg
I know you're not part of me
Though sometimes it feels that way
I don't want to talk about it
I don't want to think about it
Don't talk to me about it

Tell me it's okay
to love somebody like you
It makes me so afraid
I'll look at you the wrong way
I wake up every night
and the swords loom over me
A moonstone in the windos
and the starlight covers me
I keep it to myself
but I see it all in you
I'll keep it all inside
but I see a lot in you
I noticed something new
in the thaw in the snowmelt
It changed from cold and barren
to full and free like fantasy
You see it in my eyes
and I know she does too
Instead of being mean
I end up so cruel
Why keep it to myself
You people torture me
From being in the light
To the periphery

70 West

Stayed up talking all night long
The two of us were wasting time and oh we borrowed it all
You thought that night would never end
But by the singing scales I know everyone's my friend
I decide which way to go
Where I say yes and who I say no
But then comes in my sympathy
Spontaneity and curiosity
Spontaneity and curiosity
70 on through the high plains
Baby she went off to where it rains
She said she just had to go
But my unfinished heart said that I couldn't say no
Doesn't matter what it is I could never say no
I looked out with tears in my eyes at the open road, the canyon and the stars in the sky
I thought what a fool I am
Thinking I could pack my bags and leave myself behind
All I did was bring along my old habits for miles

Bury
02:20
|
|||
|
Wondering what will come
If I'd get to keep you here
Though I never liked the sound of my name on your tongue
But it's true when you kissed me
You put stars behind my eyes
Now I'm here with my nose in the bushes and I forgot to call you back
She came back speaking through the rain
Sheet of lavender across the sky
With my knife at your neck I wanted to give you everything
I could feel when it wasn't there
When it snapped my body broke
But you give yourself a year
And you'll bury it under new layers of skin

I drove down to see lady moon you know just past the magic sky
The wind knocks around my car and
carries with it all of time
Through the cracks in the land, it moves the clouds through the sky
It tells me that this world changes in circles like me
The valleys that rise to meet me bring me to eternity
The things that lovers do, they seem so strange to me
Everything is crumbling
elastic of my body
I know you're trying
but the essence of things is in deterioration

Sudden Storm

It calls to me late at night
when I don't expect it
Moon flung from the hills
Remember how I showed you
I left for the woods
I left for the woods
So I stumbled through the trees
Water ran beside me
In the rock a hollow
Carved out by the rain
I came back for you
I came back for you

When you're loved like you are
Cradled in the purity in the valley
Silver sky and it's covering the pine trees
Safe in the glow seeping through you like the snow
My eyes are wide open and my bones are cold
When you turned off the light
And you said we carved out our little Saturday
Looking up I was startled by your beauty
I wanted to be next to you forever
And we dreamed together till you had to leave
