The Only Thing I Have In My Hands
Here, at the end of days
Wire caught in our backs
Thrown through sun smoke shade
Angels smeared in the dirt
Holy Moses reading all of the rules
Weathered only in praise
Of wind and water and the shelling of rain
Tunnel prophets and sky
And there you are
In the old oak tree
Laughing with
The morning and God
Captured you as you rose
And it's the only thing I have in my hands
Never asking why
Carried only through the years of our ghosts
There's nothing to this
Spitfire wasteland
What's to leave behind
Here at the close of day
Silence ringing in smoke
Flies and the island dreams
When you wander too far
And you're shining as a sun in the sky
Or red rise flare
Through all my aching and the crushing of tides
What was left unsaid
And there you are
In the old oak tree
Crying like
A stained glass Mary
And you're the only thing I have in my hands
Never asking why
Carried only through the years of our ghosts
There's nothing to this
Spitfire wasteland
What's to leave behind
Wire caught in our backs
Thrown through sun smoke shade
Angels smeared in the dirt
Holy Moses reading all of the rules
Weathered only in praise
Of wind and water and the shelling of rain
Tunnel prophets and sky
And there you are
In the old oak tree
Laughing with
The morning and God
Captured you as you rose
And it's the only thing I have in my hands
Never asking why
Carried only through the years of our ghosts
There's nothing to this
Spitfire wasteland
What's to leave behind
Here at the close of day
Silence ringing in smoke
Flies and the island dreams
When you wander too far
And you're shining as a sun in the sky
Or red rise flare
Through all my aching and the crushing of tides
What was left unsaid
And there you are
In the old oak tree
Crying like
A stained glass Mary
And you're the only thing I have in my hands
Never asking why
Carried only through the years of our ghosts
There's nothing to this
Spitfire wasteland
What's to leave behind
