head north - somewhere, n.d. lyrics

we met in someone’s wake
whose, i don’t remember
but there were widows and whitecaps all around
as we sat silent and kept pretending
“i want to see it all, you know,” she said
“i want to live for always and all the lives there are”
as if she hadn’t heard me
maybe she did
we sat there silent and kept pretending
that either of us knew the reason we had come
or why the other had come
and i never got to know her
and she never got to know me
that’s the way it goes
so it goes, in love and onward

but i felt the light from that infinite sky
and the voice of the blessed center said, “rekindle. arrive.”

i never believed in one breath after that
i never believed it was the same sun rose that set
and every night when the dark would come on
i’d believe there was no absence strong enough
to keep the day within or without
we hit the earth
there was a wonderful crash
and everything took fire
everything caught ash
it was over
as simple as we were put here we were gone
the crew compartment’s breaking up
and the p-ssengers are strewn
all across the fields of north dakota
so it goes, in love and onward

but i felt the light from that infinite sky
and the voice of the blessed center said, “rekindle. arrive.”
