Lyrics
Things I burned that
Could still come back:
A million tons of broken glass
What didn't hurt
That I still burned:
Half a language dying in the dirt
Tabulate it:
Everything I saved
Everything I didn't give away
Stratify it:
Devastating loss
Everything I ate,
All the people that I loved and I betrayed,
Will be
A natural historyโ
But none of that was me
Lunch at Big Creek
We won't speak
Three days and then five days again next week
White sage, burnt brush
Calls I tried to make when you couldn't talkโ
I might die, but they'll never dig that up
Don't you touch that
Don't you touch my grave
Or anything I didn't give away
You can have it
Please just take it all
Everything I wore,
All the letters that I wrote and I ignored,
Will be
A natural history
I said it wasn't me
Got home late and wrote down what I thought
Laid my bones in sediment to rot
Felt it like another Pleistocene:
I thought I knew it onceโ
Well, it burned me in the back and now it's gone
A layer in the sea
A natural history
Are you missing me?
