Earth

I am loved by the earth, coming up gasping and wet, bewildered at birth, but I'm wrapped in those dead leaves, I know what my head needs, a love so thick it absorbs my burdens and strokes my hair until I sleep.
I am lost in this world, coming up sucking for sunlight undressed and uncurled, but I'm drug to the shore, stretched out I can't love you more, It cut so deep I wonder if the river leaves the canyon sore.

Brother's Blood

Someone summon the whippoorwill
and let her know there's music in these hills
Someone call the shouting stones
tell the clapping trees
this old soul is going home
Jubilee, infinite harmony, the tide is prone to wander but it never leaves the sea.
This grave was made to be left unfound
but my brother's blood is calling from the ground
and wolves are known for their midnight song
which cannot be composed
still the mountains hum along
Jubilee, infinite harmony, the tide is prone to wander but it never leaves the sea.

Frozen

I am frozen
you are raw
and if you wanna be my man
you're gonna have to wait for me to thaw
Love's a mountain
and I'm just snow on the peak
and if you wanna climb this high
I'm warning you now it's gonna be steep
Sick with a fever
brought back from the swamps in the south
and if you wanna meet your match
then draw your guns, shut your mouth.

Hey When U
02:29

Hey when you build things you curse like a sailor
and the walls grow straight out of your mind
Hey when you laugh you sway like the dogwoods
and the forest hollers back across time
Hey when you're kind the finches chirp louder
and I'm warm from the words that you said
Hey when it's real it's better to know it than to go on unspoken instead
OHH we sing a song out of a book you bought for my birthday, I hum the tune when you are gone, you sing the fifth from far away.
Hey when you build things the mountains around us squeal and sing songs from your hands
Hey when you brew tea it's perfect because you're the one pouring water into the pan.
Hey when you build things the mountains around us squeal and sing songs from your hands.
