Flame 04:00
In the field behind your mother's house we had ourselves wrapped up Like a pair of evening doves in spring whose love had just begun The ground began to move, the river trees they shook in fright And the birds that were lighted on their limbs took wing into night The earth broke open, how the water rushed the hole to fill And it swallowed you down just like a mouth taking a pill It closed as it opened, oh the quiet after your cries I was left scrambling in soil with tears flying from my eyes My heart's on fire With the song you inspire But the flame's grown dim Like some sad old hymn So I hid up in your room and made your mom think it was you Leaving notes around the house just like you always used to do I got angry I got tired as I screamed in your pillow As you were trapped inside the earth 17,000 ft below I went out into the woods and looked for paths that led to you, Some cave in mountainside or well whose bottom no one knew But I saw you daily in the folds of kind feverish dreams And at night your specter hiding in the darkened world's seams My heart's on fire With the song you inspire But the flame grows dim Like some sad old hymn I took your diary and filled it up with words that came to me Some wellspring deep inside that gushes out in tortured poetry I scrawled hymns in your name until the rumor of the summer storms Now I'm bundled in a thundered field with book awaiting bolts of warmth My heart's on fire With the song you inspire But the flame's growing Like some sad old hymn
