lyrics

the birch tree bark stripped bare, the bones and the bodies decay there naked as the moss grows over in time as the loss goes through the dam to
loosen you in my heart through the vein
the pain draws beneath
the floodplain

the riverbed is filled with husks of lead the dusk is turning to give and return,
the measure of our love was yearning for
more than we could carry more than we have buried in
the floodplain

i sang to you every day, i waited every night for you to come in the music of our memory each sound resounds too loudly to hear as the grief swells silent in time
as the song resolves dissonant

i know too much to love that way again
know too well to lose my way again
know too well to give away again
know too well to know when it's not
real love

i want to be wanted
don't want to be forgotten but want to forget
i want to be shaped by the love i have not haunted by the lack
i want to be released from the growing pain
in the floodplain
the floodplain
how long have i kept you
how long have i kept the light on
how long have i been
gone
