lyrics

I remember what the sunset told me: nothing
I cleaned my glasses three or four times to be sure
Oh how i felt like a sisterless brother
Watching the purple skirt of the night unfold
What strange instinct draws me to mute places
Looking for something to proclaim
Hoping the voices that i heard as a child
Will return today

I remember what the sunset told me: nothing
So i yelled back in a dry, young voice
Please speak through me
Or at least speak to me
If you’re going to suggest so much

Like a crane to south
Like a bear to the river
Like a bug to the light
Hoping the voices that i heard as a child
Will return tonight
