From the recording A Tighter Knot
Lyrics
Can You Tell Me
Can you tell me where you're going can I join you by your side
can you see if the night still moves there does it bring the morning light
I can't imagine the reflection when it meets your diamond eyes
because I've been losing all the weight
I've been hollowing out my bones so I can match, match your soul when you wake to fly away
I can't imagine how it feels not being held by gravity
I can't imagine the secrets shown when you meet that certainty
can you tell me every detail
can you describe this nothingness without judgement, without a reason to deny you
it must say yes
Badlands
Driving into the badlands I thought I was home
Down in the canyons
Lost in the twilight and silence I've been here before but I've never been here
Walking into the river I swim like a stone
Covered in anchors
I felt like a fader dressed like a ghost
Down in the badlands I felt it the most
Tell my friends I'm not coming back
