From 'That Diamond Lust', Double Salt Records, 2012

wet and the wind is blowing
my heart set
between sweet tone
and atonement
as of yet
I've no way of knowing
was it my one and only

follow the silver thread
all the way
to the silver mine
but how many skins shall I shed
to pay for what
I am doomed to find

I've got so good at waiting
but time she's sharper than me
she's so much better at wasting

riding my frozen ocean
or sealed up
inside my home
or calling the corvids in
to fill up this room with wings
and bone
