erich zann - night falls on lump gulch كلمات أغنية

when you first moved here you felt like a river, flowing free
now it’s december, and you’re reminded that rivers freeze
the early twilights that turn your days to useless stubs
axe handle blisters that turn your hands to stupid clubs
the snow accretes so quickly it buries you just where you stand
sometimes it seems the holocene never began

but there’s blue light that pools on the floor of the canyon—
a solar flare, a rolling cloud, a following moon
a signal mirror flashing the secret name found in
an anagram of an anagram of thorodin mountain

the bullsh-t dreams that young men feel they must indulge:
cheap pastoralia, the auteur theory, courtly love
godd-mn these rats, godd-mn this cold, godd-mn this wind
you stuff the cracks with steel wool, they still get in
by february life here will be untenable
but we should stay for twenty years just to be sure

of the blue light that pools on the floor of the canyon…

nothing could be more natural than that these things
would be those other things that they were not
nothing could be more natural. nothing could be more
untrue or less unfraught

and you must always remember these three simple rules:
it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter
the russian olives along the creek will choke you out
their sickly scent, which you once loved, will coat your mouth
you won’t have time before you sleep to shout
“i came back for this. i came back.”

for the blue light that pools on the floor of the canyon…

- erich zann
