Slow Death Tone
Your eyes to trace the skyline,
But it doesn’t really track.
The landmark trees have died,
The plan was never coming back.
You got the “slow death” tone,
Watch the world go on without you.
The stars enlarge and drift apart,
The dwelling by the cliff, just like a home.
As if I’ve never been here.
Or if I could never leave.
Water beats the wind here.
You distinguish it from me.
Taken home, where
Nothing looks familiar.
These ancient lives were sanitized,
Could I have really been here?
Bored into the stone,
These pits and spikes have only grown,
This distance can’t be overcome,
We must be headed home.
As if I’ve never been here.
Or if I could never leave.
Water beats the wind here.
You distinguish it from me.
Enjoy the signal show,
The phantoms interact here.
Hearts are beaten by receding skies,
The darkened waves below.
You got that slow death tone,
You offer to distract her.
Dive beneath the shining beach,
Each person leaves alone.
As if I’ve never been here.
Or if I could never leave.
Water beats the wind here.
You distinguish it from me.
As if I’ve never been here.
Or if I could never leave.
Water beats the wind here.
You distinguish it from me.

Comparisons to Leonard Cohen, Violent Femmes and the Barenaked Ladies have been met with confused stares. ... more
