lyrics

Hang on to the pines
(grow) while you're still mine
Before that fall-apart
A mother's arms will grow tired still
Under the water we had fault
The weight was too much; our ocean skin would touch.

Light, permit me to be everything luminous,
everything transitory.

Oh, Love, did you come hard enough for you to want me to stay? Because I don't know what to do with this sorrow that I sing to you to borrow your strength.
Maybe we were born from a heavier time
The world I thought was mine caved in,
turned on its side.
If only we had met years down the line at a neighbor's wedding, a show, or a dive
We'd say that we were fine, but we'd know each other is lying because we had talked all that shit about all those who settle.
Ancestry carved these lines into my face
Resemblance can come to to all those who wait.

But I am not my father's war;
I'm not the land my family was working toward.

Hold still and I will move you.
I will move through you,
and I will move.
