Song Description

A dark fairy tale style song about an internal search for answers as to how much one has hurt someone they love, feelings of guilt, and how to move forward.

Lyrics

As I recall the sky was bright.
I made my way to the forest while there was still light.
I?d hunt for answers, armed with ego.
Anywhere silence went the truth was sure to go.
But the woods were dark and full of sound.
A weeping sky had last night soaked the ground.
I hung a dead squirrel from a dead tree
To mark the twisted trail so you could find me?if necessary.

I tried to sleep ?til I heard the bird.
When a raven cries his croak sounds like words
I?ve never tried to hurt anyone
But this shrieking voice condemned the things I?ve done.

I?ve blown my days to smithereens
My skies are filled with ashes
And I?m spinning faster
Crashing to your ocean
Into your ocean?

I couldn?t speak, nor hear the tones
Which once was raven, and now feathers and bones.
Suddenly I missed your taste
So strong the reason, so wrong the strength I waste.
And I shutter to think of you alone
In the world I love and fear the more I roam
What time will do with us I don?t know.
Hold my hand?we?ll write it as we go.
We?ll write it as we go.
