Lyrics

I Found it In the creekbed where the nature covered wounds Not an antler, not a horn The color of old milk Hollow in a way that echoed to be filled It wasn't buried deep Nature gave it to me A story begging to be enscribed A tune longing to thrive I did not think of death as I carved a bone Only how it may play, how long it's been alone A song will grow where the marrow once stayed Brought the sculpture to my lips It trembled at my fingertips Then nothing sang, and then I fixed it Then I sculpted and I chipped it Then I It told me stories of a ruler Who went by the name of Pearl She would smile and they'd swoon She would dance and they would swirl Until one day, she didn't have her way Ran from those who tied her down She took a man's head, and then hers rolled Though her story never told Listen to the singing bone
