Lyrics
Keep In Mind
Blame the lunacy
that comes over me
I was sold, you see,
long ago
And the bruise will be
how you’ll remember me
but like everything
it’s on loan
So let the feeling fade
like the man we made
made of things we saved
made of snow
Take the soul therein
take the skeleton
take the wreck I’ve been
let it go
Oh, the more you need it
the weakness deepens
I’ve been leaning away
from want
But I’ve seen the seabirds
flying seaward
all they need was
to know true north
Then the call went out
more a sigh than shout
more like dying while
the babe is born
then the seed was shot
I was seeing stars
and I stole your car
to be alone
Oh, but now it’s this
analogous
to the sound
you’re missing most
And now see how
it’s growing
So silent? So stoic?
The storm folded into
the stone
Oh, somehow
you knew it
like the ground
intuits
every rise,
every nuance
of plow
And the lie’s in place
to keep them all away
‘til you can raise up
your face
and be proud
Be proud
Send a word or note
I can come back home
and in the land I love
I am known
Let me sleep and dream
like the serpentine
black and blue and green
