Lyrics
If I’m here, I’m nowhere
Somewhere strange & free
Ease into a second summer,
Or just an early fall
Pretty sure though, I’m not where I belong
Like a light cutting through early-morning fog
All the sun in my eyes takes it’s time
When the winter finds you,
Like you know it will,
You can fight it tooth & nail but
It’s nothing you can change
Pretty sure though, I may not make through.
If the first snow’s the last one I ever see
Let it all come down & swallow me.
Like a birch, brittle-barked and shallow roots,
Hollowed-out but alive, as far as we can see
Beats a heart under leaves buried deep in white
Out of sight, out of mind, but stubbornly survive
If there ends up time left,
& if I find my voice,
I hope I find profundity
& words to say
That mean something
That’s greater than
(At least equal to)
My time here,
It’s time overdue.
All the words we write & the shit we read
Is the time we waste, a paralysis
Am I counting down? What am I counting on?
It’s a hazy mist I thought I’d never miss.
But I wanted this,
At least I thought I did,
Well it’s too late now, seasons they pass.
