lyrics

tonight i’ll prepare for the last meal
the last whispered grace
my fingers will fold on the belly’s field
and i’ll hear every hair hit the hay
tonight i’ll take down the written wall
each line on the page, a nest in the paint
the letters will fold as the fire will burn
and i’ll hear every word crawl and faint
let the ground fill my back, let my spirit lift
thank my body, my noble steed
let the spiraling road lead me back to my home
lead the night into day, lead my death into birth
what i carved in caves
what i buried with bones
what i swallowed down whole
every thread that i’ve sewn
what i gathered from grace
what i made from mistakes
what i’ve thrown to the wind
every day that i’ve lived
will holy yet only bleach the dog’s hide
and i trust it’ll run from the heart
run, run, run
