half waif - mother tongue lyrics

Loading...

fierce and failing
the blue shale
the shawl on her pale head
where the hair once fell

i see it ailing
the blue whale
the tremor in the right hand
you could only hide so well

when the cloud comes and you lose the sun

the history of the river: just give it time to pass
it was never ours. it’s only weather
red in the water
from the chemical wars. when the cloud comes and you lose the sun

i should be angry just give it time to pass. it’s only weather
but i’m just tired
the red water flowed from me
before it was a child

when the cloud comes and you lose the sun
just give it time to pass

days are fading. when everything is lost
turtle dove. and you don’t know what to trust: trust the moss
crushed velvet in the hall
the color of our love. trust the geese criss+crossing their way back home
edged with pavers, when the cloud comes and you lose the sun
crusher run. trust the meadowlark in the sage brush, landing in a
patch of sun
fortify the forest. it’s only weather
trust the forest
it’s the only way it’s done. trust the moss

when the cloud comes and you lose the sun

fierce and failing: when everything is lost
just give it time to pass by, it’s only weather
the mother tongue. and you are sky opening to the west
and you don’t know what to trust, trust the moss
feeling the absence now you are sky opening
of all the ones i’ve lost
trust the geese criss+crossing their way back home
and if i’ve learned one thing: just give it time to pass by
a mother’s love
is a compass in the wilderness
