I used to draw for hours
faces, flowers
I'd hold still for hours

take in the light
put it away
way, way, way down
we are green green green
electromagnetic machines
heights to aspire
a slow vertigo
all things expire
all things grow
we are green green green
electromagnetic machines
day turns to night
we turn away
way, way, way down
down
down
we are green green green
electromagnetic machines

I'm not now as you knew me
falling to my knees
softly in the roses and pine
counting out the split ends
the years from you to me
a hair's length measures time
faded ends
bleached and bent
I incline
I decline
from forest to city
here I am slower
crawling with the sun
a promise I await
eyes along bare ankles
for berries to ripen
bluer every day
salted tongue
breath full of ash
I incline
I decline
from forest to city
searching for stillness
but everything is changing
growing, aging

faces and flowers

in the shadow
of the shard
unyielding, on guard
lips trembling
you said, "hold this thing,
"keep it steady,
are you ready?"
I could feel the pulse in my fingertips
I used to draw for hours,
faces, flowers
now I've learned to write
the stories of past lives
the power of a simple,
triumphant narrative
I used to draw for hours,
faces, flowers
I'd hold still for hours
the shadows descend
I think this is the end
why'd you wanna know
the distance to the sun?
how to keep the time?
how the clocks run?
the meaning in the growth of roots?
