lyrics

Dry grass can burn easy, easy laugh
It shouts a loud orange shroud out in the rain,
Stares in at my face
Flickers pale again
Eats a pile of trash
Its a photograph
Its nothing

Do you believe I knew your name
Before the coronation came,
Before the years of distancing
Before we tumbled, tumbling
You're the tall one, better yet,
You are light in my dark

In the land of freeways, clogged memories
There are houses up the hill where
There are only stairs
In the cleanest air
Right after the rain
You can hear the train
Whistling

At night the ashes heave themselves
I should ignite and read these signs your name
In tongues of flame
In the windowpane
The light gets trapped
Beneath the lamp,
Hovering
