Kneeling on seething gravel
A scream etched in salt and tar
It's the end of the world
Twist, plume
Wings of smoke
Try to smoke myself out of the cave
Fire creates
Stop
Frenetic standstill
It might be hard to tell
The subject isn't well
Well enough to say
The fall led me astray
As I plummet from the summit
I begin to fade away
Ever after dreamless downwards
I feel like a raindrop in a storm
Sleepwalk crabtalk crawling backwards
Oh it's been a lifetime coming on
Time to let it go
Cut the branch beneath our feet
Road unwinding
Twist, wings of smoke
We cut the branch beneath our feet
Road unwinding, rinse repeat
Crushed into a broken heap
Road unwinding
Fire takes, fire takes
Spend years to struggle to our feet
Road unwinding, rinse repeat
Comfort dresses as defeat
Road unwinding
So focus on the present beat
Road unwinding, rinse repeat
Maintaining, tending to the weeds
Road unwinding
This moment's everything we need
Road unwinding, rise repeat
