[00:00.00]Harsh spoken c...
[00:00.00]Harsh spoken cadence are these crooked lines we walk by,
[00:09.36]Yet brilliant beasts of flight.
[00:11.34]Don't cease to line our roads home,
[00:13.71]Drowned amongst a sea of faintly falling ashes.
[00:29.22]We cannot come back here.
[00:32.22]Speaking through the slit in your tongue.
[00:36.48]Crying out that you belong.
[00:41.19]Just for you are bitter in thought,
[00:45.57]And you ate of your own heart.
[00:49.98]In gathering the fragments of the time we've sowed,
[00:54.06]We never chose the crops nor the tares.
[00:59.10]In burning what's left of every single field,
[01:02.97]How could you ever forget?
[01:13.14]What is left to build here?
[01:16.44]Of which do first we destroy?
[01:26.91]Ancient sullen anger.
[01:29.13]Put your hands in the earth.
[01:31.38]You were once the roots of something whole.
[01:36.06]Right there where you stand; put your hands in the earth.
[01:40.59]There is nothing left to set us apart.
[01:44.55]There can never be an end to all the graves and the dust
[01:48.93]And we will never wash it from our hands,
[01:53.97]In carving your name into the marble stone,
[01:58.26]How could you ever forget?
[03:06.90]We cannot come back here.
[03:09.81]Speaking through the slit in your tongue.
[03:14.16]Crying out that you belong.
[03:18.75]Just for you are bitter in thought,
[03:24.24]And you ate of your own heart.
[03:28.44]Immensity is now your greatest fear,
[03:32.07]As it calmly tracks your steps.
[03:36.84]In planting the seeds along your very home,
[03:40.92]How could you ever forget?
[03:55.14]And all we have left are the monuments.
