laura gibson - i don't want your voice to move me كلمات أغنية

on the eve of your departure
i sat beside you on the kitchen floor
you said darkness has no virtue of its own
it’s only darkness
what is lost is lost
you were tired of metaphor

i once crawled along the ruins
found you up above the timber line
where the mountains stood before us like a bride
narrow wide, the sun was honeycomb
it turned your white hair gold

i don’t want your voice to move me
i don’t want to be cracked open
i don’t want the knot to loosen in my throat
to place a landmine down a rabbit hole
i’m no pale-faced saint
i’m like a dog always barking at a ghost

you know, i don’t go easy
i’ve never made a myth of your disease
i hedged my bets with every soul i ever loved
except for one
honey, all i know of hope is throwing stones into the void

i don’t want your voice to move me
i don’t want to be cracked open
i don’t want the broken headlight fl!cker
the bright pines, the silver sigh, the moon
behind you
when i find you
driftwood bones, in fog and smoke
the pull of the yoke, a knotted oak, a joke
a hymn we only spoke and never sung
those of us born in loss, you know, we only trust the light on the horizon
when i find you
i don’t want your voice to move me

- laura gibson
