lyrics

It’s been so long but I’m still here
Stuck inside of a state of mind
An absentee in my own life
But this lost love and this sadness
Just the pain of a single heart
Unknowable under my skin
There’s still crying on the border
From a child who was never young
Her beat’s as beautiful and brief
And then Pete died, he was 35
Left a wife with a child inside
She’ll never see her father’s eyes
And my mother lost her mother
Left so much that was never said
That silent dust is all we are


What could soothe the raw wound
Of that it’s like to be alive?
Oh, it hurts, oh, God, it hurts until it doesn’t
All the pain and beauty
Will intertwine throughout your life
Find a why and any how can be endured
Meaning’s in the small things
Her hand inside my hand that night
Looking in to someone’s eyes and there’s a world there


Drunk at dawn in a field in Dorset
Seven hearts all awake in the same dream
You were high, held my hand I felt so alive
I’m reminded of you, my first love
Another field, another life, another autumn
I’m the same, haven’t changed in a long time
All I need is to know and to love sometimes
And to keep in my mind all this suicide
