about

From the forthcoming album Something Happening / Always Happening, available September 9 from Fort Lowell Records.

lyrics

Set it down you’ve been out scrambling
Through the brushes like a thief in the night
Past the line where it dips into deepest mauve
Fabric of time
Spirit of space
Here it all goes

Weightless, but wrathfully
Weightless but wrathfully so

Now you have some sense in the darkness
Feel around, some sense of the vast of it
Spill it out
The deepest of notion, the deepest of notion
Heavy air on the wing of an eagle
Halfway up, the ascent of the mountain
You can’t fall
But the car won’t drive

Way down low in the wealth of the canyon
Bloody stones and a soaking branch
Watch the waves of the sparks
Through our eyelids

I have supped the water of ages
I got found by the babbling brook
But it’s lower down
Lower than swimming

So pick it up if that has to happen
A steady friend in the wealth of the canyon
Whispering low
The voice of everyone
And also no one
