First fell our names 'pon the crust of your shadow Fell then our faces and tongues Naked and blind and your breath kneading mine Naked, and river wrung And there lay the songs that you wrote for me, trembling There lay the last of your songs Banks of blunt melody Writhing incessantly Squealing, the morning sun Spills from my hands Black dirt splits under me Over me, embers rain I have heard men say these waters run red Nearest the mouth Fell then the skin of the sky all a-blistering Shook loose to fall by our feet The back of your head from the rocks torn and weeping still Soured in the heat, the breeze brushes by And voices wash over me Next to me, burnt oak bleeds I have heard men say these waters run red Nearest the mouth
