lyrics

on a mile-long trail we hacked with blunted down blades
we tracked a beast that wasn't there to give us a name
the darkness came so quick and laid a field in fog
could barely see the way back and almost got more lost

you fought a losing bout with gashes in your head
when you realized you'd lost, you blamed the stick instead
and i couldn't place that name you whispered as you wept
but still i nodded, hoping you would just forget

we walked like giants crushing shrubs like they were trees
our hands weaved up like baskets, sweating up our sleeves
the closest i have felt to anyone since then
was nothing near; i still don't understand it

there was something underneath that bridge we made of logs
i don't know what, but in my dreams it throws me off
i don't act up the same, but god it felt so wrong
i never told no one but you and me alone

the precious time would pass; i'd talk into the sand
and make the shapes i saw on some old parchment
you made the sounds that they belonged to
and you helped me out; said, "curl your tongue like i do"
