Lyrics:
Reading about Buddhism and listening to Xasthur on the subway in New York City Back when you were my home Not that long ago This Life Upends me Again and again (This churning life Of avalanches It spins) Each Night now My mind in the dark Brings it all roaring back (This day plummets Into night, now My mind in the dark) That you could not Bear me And the wind that came In through the door (Can I bear the uncertainty That arrives on the wind That came in through that door?) That I can not Hold you Our devotions mismatched (Holding you in my mind I don't really see Waking up surprised With no one around And wondering "who?") We could have bridged the gap But it yawned and swallowed This world of ours That's now yours and mine This life Bulldozed By ridiculous sensitivities Seeing your face everywhere And there's no escape (This life Clinging to rocks in wind Seeing this lost chance,) Except what if we could go further in? (we were each others' reward For enduring the waves "The wages of dying Is love. " Like the poem says As long as the One last leap Into the dark Is whole hearted It almost was.)
