Quickly forgetting was
The way I lived my life

Try telling me your name
Or try telling me "don't worry"

Everything I knew would
Quickly wither and die

All echoes would be buried
In the sound of living

The sound of feet slapping sidewalk

That was me, treasure hunting

I would bury what I found

That was me , the gold digger

Underground

Quickly forgotten was
This forgetful way of life

When I left home

When I lived as if I'd died

Sitting on a rock and doing nothing

Alone for so long

In the dark I found my sight
There you name was

Written large in letters bright
And there my faith was

"Worry not" declared the night
In the great void of my life
I could feel the shape of
What was missing

Like the way the Woolly
Mammoth stands so tall and bold
In our minds

I was shaking at the size of my cry

And the true love it described

I know a new day is dawning

Now and so ends my holy night

It's back to the world I go

Back to little girls and
Shows
And their worldly woes

All unfurling clothes

Will I carry myself slowly
Enough to remember

I sit on a dark rock doing
Nothing, still just crowded in

There's the love in flesh and bones
