never thought you'd lose your way back home to me i bled a trail along the mountain pass fled so fast no map could hold its potency yeah i cut my X's low and hard
and all i've done is spilled more blood the drifts are deepening on the switchbacks below the peaks
miles up H________ i walked on mirrors a horse was drowning the glass broke underneath me a hail of arrows circled waiting on my word
oh mercy you left it up to me
i'll always come to spill more blood for the route you braved for me where the cliffs repel the sea
it's going to take more and more to stop the infinite crush of insects gaining on the moat i fall back unprotected attached and disconnected i let you through then i lit the fuel
it's so much simpler than we thought hope waits where we'd almost given up as patient as the land
the inkwells overflowing the rivers never knowing always writing always erasing
