mount eerie – wooly mammoth’s mighty absence [2005] lyrics
[verse 1]
quickly forgetting was the way i used to live my life
if you would try telling me your name, i would forget
if you would or try telling me “don’t worry”, i would forget
because everything i knew would quickly wither and be replaced
and all echoes would be buried in the sound
the sound of living, the sound of my feet on the sidewalk
treasure hunting, i would bury what i found
i was a gold digger underground
[verse 2]
but quickly forgotten was this forgetful way of life
once i left home, and once i lived as if i had died
sitting on a rock and doing nothing
alone for so long, in the dark i found my sight
and there your name was written large in letters bright!
there my faith was! “worry not!” declared the night
in the great void, i could feel my shape of what was missing
like the way the woolly mammoth stands so tall and bold in our minds
i was shaken at the size of my cry
and the true love it described
[verse 3]
so i know day is dawning, so ends my holy night
it’s back to the world i go, back to the girls and shows
and will i carry myself slowly enough through the worldly woes
through unfurling flows to remember
i sit on a dark rock doing nothing still, just crowded in
and there’s the love in flesh and bone
