[00:09.240]There’s a creek I would walk to
[00:13.410]When my house felt like a locked room
[00:17.390]Lean on little wooden bridges
[00:21.380]Watch the eels playing cool
[00:25.160]I could walk a little further
[00:29.200]Down the dirt path on the shoulder
[00:33.250]To the biggest waterfall my city limits could produce
[00:41.290]Boy, it fell
[00:45.030]Kept on falling
[00:49.140]Biting down, carving rock, slow erosion
[00:57.150]Lay me here on the stone
[01:01.030]I’m only here to feed mosquitoes
[01:05.270]Only skin, only blood
[01:08.900]A little less now than there was
[01:16.020]In January '23
[01:19.810]The creek became a raging sea
[01:23.960]A great torrential flood that ripped
[01:28.040]The bridges from the banks
[01:31.590]The soft slope of the valley
[01:35.550]Ravaged, cracked and wounded badly
[01:39.390]Fallen giants breathing heavily
[01:43.770]Across the severed track
[01:47.530]They fell
[01:51.500]Stayed fallen
[01:55.380]Roots exposed, reaching high
[01:59.290]Something’s growing
[02:03.270]Lay me here, by the bones
[02:07.190]I’m only here to feed mosquitoes
[02:11.420]Only skin, only blood
[02:15.170]A little less now than there was
[02:19.060]A little less now than there was
[02:47.420]I still go, it’s been a year now
[02:51.450]Past the chain link fence that keeps out
[02:55.220]With the bridges all still blown out
[02:59.430]You can’t amble anymore
[03:04.050]Overgrown, abandoned
[03:07.370]I take off my shoes to cross and
[03:11.280]Find the current has forgotten
[03:15.340]How it felt to break the world
[03:19.330]And if I fall
[03:23.450]I’ll fall in
[03:27.310]Soaking wet, ruined pride, Tui laughing
[03:35.070]So leave me here, let me go
[03:39.160]I’m only here to feed mosquitoes
[03:43.490]Only skin, only blood
[03:47.130]A little less now than there was just
[03:51.200]Leave me here, on my own
[03:55.100]I only breathe to feed the ego
[03:59.280]Only flesh, only blood
[04:02.940]I’m letting go of what I’m not
[04:06.950]A little less now than there was
[04:10.960]A little less now than there was
