Briefly Here
So keep running little one
Weightless as your name
Your lover in the river
Water on his skin
Your lover in the river
His body glittering
The way the light breaks will make you feel seen
The way the line breaks reveals everything
Keep on running little one
The present will join the past
Keep on moving darling
Your letter will outlast
The rusting pick-up truck
And drug-laced cigarettes
Bodies lost inside the dark
Colliding to save themselves
Winter will turn to summer
The wild birds will fly back home
When you turn the page over
Your lover will return
The sky blue phosphorescence
The lights are sparking wires
The city blinking and heaving
Your heart through an amplifier
My love, we're briefly here
We'll burn as an effigy
A century across from here
If time is a circle, you'll run to the middle
If time is forever, he's always in the river
Weightless as your name
Your lover in the river
Water on his skin
Your lover in the river
His body glittering
The way the light breaks will make you feel seen
The way the line breaks reveals everything
Keep on running little one
The present will join the past
Keep on moving darling
Your letter will outlast
The rusting pick-up truck
And drug-laced cigarettes
Bodies lost inside the dark
Colliding to save themselves
Winter will turn to summer
The wild birds will fly back home
When you turn the page over
Your lover will return
The sky blue phosphorescence
The lights are sparking wires
The city blinking and heaving
Your heart through an amplifier
My love, we're briefly here
We'll burn as an effigy
A century across from here
If time is a circle, you'll run to the middle
If time is forever, he's always in the river
