ginger & pear - that slow and steady rot lyrics
[verse 1: lilli furfaro]
down behind the greenhouse there’s a compost pile knee_high
that the black flies like to frequent
where the gardeners stop breathing to pass by
[chorus: lilli furfaro]
the wet and wilt the mold and silt
are warm and soft and dying to embrace
a kiss of life from death: that slow and steady rot
[verse 2: lilli furfaro & hunter rogerson]
in some secret courtyard where the ivy measures miles
on the backside of forever
where the only form of breathing comes in sighs
[chorus: , lilli furfaro & hunter rogerson]
, your hope and guilt
have brought you here. you’re trying not to waste
your memories of light: that slow and steady rot
[bridge: lilli furfaro & hunter rogerson]
a step begets a promise of a second wind
an end begets an honor to begin again
our golden hour’s a friend
and growing now means loving where we’ve been
[instrumental break]
[verse 3: lilli furfaro, , lilli furfaro & hunter rogerson]
something’s stirring in the chambers
the moss and mud and microbes know it best
[chorus: lilli furfaro & hunter rogerson]
a breath, a sigh, and brought to life
from refuse and a green and tender grace
young roots now holding in that slow and steady…
