GRASS WIDOW
PAST TIME LYRICS

Uncertain Memory
Memory define all
Find the evidence gone
Light years away no song
No future to come

Is it happening now?
Hold the line or let fall
Narrate when you call

Shadow
Beating rapidly
Looking down from here
If I were to fall (From the tower, far to fall)
Could I return?
Incapacitate
Walls the spoke to me
Words lost in the fire (From the cellar far to climb)
I'll rise in smoke
Don't let me down, let me go
I'll bide my time in vertigo
Don't let me down, let me fall
Won't tie you up
Let me go, let me fall
I'll bite my tongue
Won't let you break the fall
Find the horizon
Planted on the ground
Shadows changing form
Find it moving

11 of Diamonds
You've forgotten you stand for one
Empty melody rolls off your tongue
Feeling only what you touch
Learning with your fingers
Presently omitting everything you are
Not yourself
Formless giant you can't define
Building idols, worshipping time
If you hadn't known what it was
Would you have dares to describe it?
Imagine space for what is left unnamed
Reaches greater than indicated
Beyond these words
In a shadow of a doubt
there's a color we forgot
In a sky without a cloud
Song without a sound
Turn it on, yourself and desire to continue
Gravity may not be the only pull
If open it comes up and out

Give Me Shapes
As you lay down on the broken lines
I called out to you
Give me shapes so I can build a house
We'll set fire to
Return to enter through the burning door
Walls were reaching high
Up the elevator to the place
Gardens mark the plane

Old Disguise
Find the lines unnearthed, unchanged
No reason to stay in here, in guise
(When the cat runs away and the milk has gone sour)
Old disguise
Write it down and send it off, decide
(Pulling up all the rugs and exposing the dust, nowhere to hide)
No disguise
Choose to write the story
Sitting in a room where the air now stands still
Open eyes
Counting the pages
Each grain of salt
Open air exposed new form
Walk ahead in time to meet resolve
(This will keep out the rain, windows let in the light
Here with new eyes)
Read the whole thing backwards
Written in a room where the air now stands still
Undisturbed

Fried Egg
Dark noise sounding
Black surrounding
Distance ringing
Try to reach me
Sleeping on the floor
The lines are breaking
Light spills from under the door
Wake me if you can
Tie it back in place
I'll wait for you to see
A tunnel out of the night
Channeling into another time
Wake me if you can
The lines are breaking
I'll wait for you to see

Landscape
Draw it out of dim decay
Don't crawl out of here until the lunar landing
One foot out to touch the glass
Dusty claw or shapely mass
Survey the landscape
Trust you will recalibrate
Now consume the atmosphere
Here where you are now

Submarine
First inherit this container
Necessary parts in tow
Kept deep
Low down, open
Now in the space
All is manufactured
Make so many
Have to let them out to float away
Holding their breath
Passing us by
Airtight vessel
With old debris
Piece together
Up and over
If I could take out the hours
Find a way to be there
Here I am only one whole
Holding their breath
As they pass by
Gone with the tide

Strangers Come
No one saw the uneven grass on that day
Night brings dreams to recapture fears, haunts you still
Wash the sand away, bring her here
Strangers come, pulling time
Disorients, rewind
Unfamiliar recognized
unfamiliar bring her here

Tuesday
Call out to the sea, confiding
Follow in a simple stride to another room
Where the dark is wound up twice as tight and let it fall
Confiding
You look at me, I forget
Five a.m., desperate
(Mirror watch me as I perform, hidden in sanity)
Lucidly holler in three
Out here on the winded flat
While the waters rise we still confide
In the beating blood and blind our sights
Into me
Whispering in the wall
Ancient, may you never fall
(Hanged alone searching for what may lie beneath)
Endlessly shattering
Crawling in the shadowed part of a waning tide
Find sleep below a porthole out into the night
(Breaking glass, definite ends, mind the means)
Alchemists change your name
Mythical moon, never fall
(Clearly see what is taking form
And who but I to understand at all?)
Hollow, broken in three
Now to forever do what is owed to you
Know me here in three
Hollow the ground
No form, no age, body dissolve
