lyrics

Out in the fields, I collect sun-bleached bones with my brother
There’s viscera still clinging to the fibula
We stain our mouths catholic red with blood from the vine

Running through paddocks, grass whipping at our ankles
The light hits the offering of a skull at the right angle
Fall from a branch and shriek for my mother
Not that one, the other

Hazy heads and crooked legs, swallowing up the warm night
Grinning through the cheap beer, I wanna feel like this all the time
I still hear that song, I’m back in that courtyard again

And the shed where illness dwelled
Springsteen on the radio, Nebraska’s sullen swell
When she shrieked and threw the medicine against the wall
And we cried while I drove her to the hospital

I smell the salt and the sun
I beat the blacktop on my way home
I’m coming home.
