lyrics

cold hands
desirous of movement
I see reflections from the opposite shore
to be unlocked, to be transplanted
to become, become, become
there are flowers from your mouth, oh could they change me?

once I knew all the trees by heart
now the names are lost in the standing pool
bring me to the edge
bring me to the edge
dip me in the deep
dip me in the deep
I’ll be emptied to be filled
with the water and the will

the weight
of granite on my frame
a ceaseless force that feels like none
roll this stone down the mountain
let it over, overcome
thought I saw a flash of light, but now it’s gone again
