half waif - heartwood lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
“i always thought you were made of trees,”
he said to me
to be so seen
is a green kind of sadness
it feels so new
tiny shoot, proof of life
does that mean i was invisible before?

[chorus]
okay, but let me be oak
my branches curved back down to earth
the reaching and bowing a perpetual arc
rainbow on the horizon
i embrace in all directions
i live one hundred years
i remember everything
in the langauge of my heartwood

[verse 2]
and when i dream it’s not of trees
but of placing quartz
in thе cold end of the stream
whеre the moonlight catches the crystal flakes
showing the fish where to go
a checkerboard of crooked arrows
pointing you back again and again
to a numb and nameless
deep
