lyrics

In the spring, in the spring, when the sunshine sings & the forest echoes in bloom
& you have what you need by the sycamore tree, & you know that your lover is true
& your faults & your fears recede from your ears, & the triumph of summer is soon
& the walls that you build are toys to be filled by the whims of your spiraling mood

How quickly summer comes & leaves begin to fall
How slowly anamnesia grins inside the fog

In the wasteland of the Empire, in the Appalachian hills
We are fighting a battle to learn how to be still
As the world burns, we fuck ourselves & doubt if we have will
King Ludd wakes, the bells breaks, like a mid-October chill

& where am I know that all the leaves are gone…?
