It was the only woman you ever loved
That got burnt by the sun too often when she was young
And the cancer spread and it ran into her body and her blood
And there’s nothing you can do about it now

So if we could just pretend that I went to college
And traveled abroad
And did something different
Anything but just sitting at home
For three and a half years
Writing song after song after song

You in the living room, legs bent at forty-five degrees
I write AB AB, try to find your rhyme scheme
I look for objects on the desk with which to sculpt your image best
What would I name this; could I paint it: “Woman (reading)?”, “Girl (at rest)?”

You’d forgotten my name by now

He was the sun and she, the earth
Yeah, they were light years, two worlds apart again
Well, he was here and she was there
And they were nowhere, and the days were young again

Even if the your heart stops
I’ll be there to hold you up
Even as the world turns
I’ll be there to watch the fire burn
Burn us both alive

You've stripped me down, the layers fall like rain
It's over now, just innocence and instinct still remain
You watched me while I slowly disappeared
I reached for you to save me; you were frozen in your fear

And of places in between houses
Where the redwoods could swallow you whole
Swollen appendages catch in the knots of radiance collapsing inwards
