lyrics

The birds out my window are a cacophony of sound it’s undeniable
That they’re happy, they’re happy
And I’m not a widow but this nagging sense of loss is undeniable

Watching a spider hang from a thread two thousand times its body height above the ground
It’s fearless and carefree
And I’m not in free fall, but the bottom of stomach’s hanging out for sure

What are you a monster of? What are you if not my love?
It’s fumbling for a light switch in the slowly creeping darkness growing in your absence
Lady, Lady Doubt, that’s me

A man stacking boxes and another man unstacking so methodically
They’re piling with persistence
And from my vantage point oh I could never say with certainty when they’ll stop

False appearances are often made of naught
But when we place them at the edge of thought
They fester and they grow, choking row on row
Casting shade about, hiding secret doubt

But no the birds out my window are a cacophony of sound
And there is no denying it
No the birds out my window are a cacophony of sound

Simple is safe, but complex is fiery, intricate, and ultimately more rewarding. ... more
