I Don't Want Your Voice to Move Me |
| On the eve of your departure |
| I sat beside you on the kitchen floor |
| You said darkness has no virtue of its own |
| It’s only darkness |
| What is lost is lost |
| You were tired of metaphor |
| I once crawled along the ruins |
| Found you up above the timber line |
| Where the mountains stood before us like a bride |
| Narrow wide, the sun was honeycomb |
| It turned your white hair gold |
| I don’t want your voice to move me |
| I don’t want to be cracked open |
| I don’t want the knot to loosen in my throat |
| To place a landmine down a rabbit hole |
| I’m no pale-faced saint |
| I’m like a dog always barking at a ghost |
| You know, I don’t go easy |
| I’ve never made a myth of your disease |
| I hedged my bets with every soul I ever loved |
| Except for one |
| Honey, all I know of hope is throwing stones into the void |
| I don’t want your voice to move me |
| I don’t want to be cracked open |
| I don’t want the broken headlight flicker |
| The bright pines, the silver sigh, the moon |
| Behind you |
| When I find you |
| Driftwood bones, in fog and smoke |
| The pull of the yoke, a knotted oak, a joke |
| A hymn we only spoke and never sung |
| Those of us born in loss, you know, we only trust the light on the horizon |
| When I find you |
| I don’t want your voice to move me |
