lyrics

the summer we all tried to cover townes
columbine, nothing, my mother the mount
you came in the silence and slipped through the sound
of our crooning hot afternoon

the firebox empty the ashes stood still
the screen door wide open mosquitos to kill
you crossed a great ocean to wide to fill
with the water you pulled by the moon

i heard your laughter with ears that i learned
i heard my beat quicken the years i have yearned
to make this connection language to discern
the kindness that follows your trail

when, you meet the maker and he brings down his heat
to tear open the skin with the grass underneath
you will feel the pulse of this new home so sweet
to carry your heart when you fail

and i know that you got away
you got out
and you made the biggest escape
and they'll say
if you make the biggest mistake
they'll never find out why you came
was it to save?
or to make us afraid?

the summer we all tried to cover townes
columbine, nothing, my mother the mount
you came in the silence and slipped through the sound
of our crooning hot afternoon
