Oh father said,
out of the corner of his eyes
you're gonna walk alone today
With spiraling view in to the night
devotion fades without a warning
Oh mother said
further knows forever
like light on shattered water
And now, when down and out
conceive the old golden cage
Silent bones shadow the door way
as i spill into the yellow road
The path, will find me one day
at the river where we once stood
Oh brother said
You're wired up in red thread
a distant lover on a string
Its light, light enough
Don't look below the ground is gone
I was cautioned to remember
there at the bottom of the stair case
I said look over my shoulder
the early leaf is not a flower
And in the fire I'm a moth for you
When the silver lining cuts in two
And in the darkness, dreary moon will do
I am forever lost
forever found with you
