Tekst piosenki
When I closed my eyes in Noni’s field
We were lying on our backs
I dreamt that the ground split a seam
…our spirits, floating
When no longer tied into our bodies
We left them (wrapping)
As a sign, to slip into the crack
Tired and ready to go
But I don’t know what goes on
I touched my grandfather’s face
He lay fixed in his casket
He lay sewn shut and folded
So that none could refuse it
They had posed, they had painted him
I laughed. I let him go
His cheeks washed like watercolor sunlight, evening time
I could never put my hands back to them
Still, I don’t know what goes on
Will my thoughts burn in unseen patterns?
Form a dim glow in your mind
Long after you remember who it was that I looked like?
We saw the sky, swarming full with the light that the fireflies made
An accidental constellation
You, how will you go?
Out through your mouth in a sigh?
Into a space we don’t know
