lyrics

aslant from a well near a sea
I offer myself to the sky
my bones fold into wearing pools
of water, of dirt, of moonlight, of rye

absolve my heart
I am lasting
I have love that reaches deep
with no askers asking
do I cut my hair
do I offer my beginnings
to make something true

and I have been, been here before
and I love again

upon a hill of patchwork green
I offer my roots to the land
ephemeral arms outstretched to me
heavy, heavy into sinking sand

absolve my heart
I am lasting
I have love that reaches deep
with no askers asking
do I cut the thread
do I offer a beginning
to make something true

and I have been, been here before
and I love again
and I love again
