Now you walked a gait through the board-ups and the panes
In this place you were resplendent laying half-witted and grey
You were chewing up a time a lonely light on in your mind
Through it dirt still breaks beneath your feet through it all instincts align
I know you clothed yourself in means I know your voice put it to peace
But you were sinking like a sailor in the coldest darkest sea
And to the long-awaited life like bellwether or kite
I’m a church without an anchor I’m a firm decisive dive
Now you are a foehn rolling over an expanse
I see the air fill up with depth now I feel the force press in my neck
Then and now I can recall the other times you were before
But then couldn’t seem to place it I didn’t feel like I belonged
So once I took the path through the wood up in the drafts
And I buried this in words so I could never take it back
With each evening choosing sides I am dressed in this attire
I keep the doors all resting open I’ll be waiting here on fire
