Lighting
[Verse 1]
If my hammer's back at home
And I've run out of twine
Twist the branches into corners
Lay the planks out for my spine
[Verse 2]
Whittled down the day
To a narrow straight line
Pullin' at the splinters
One by one
[Verse 3]
The amber of the twilight
Is only in the sky
We sleep unwhiskeyed
And plain
[Chorus]
Where dreams are all mundane
No symbols to unfurl
I won't wake up with a name
Just a lightin' of the world
[Verse 4]
Alabaster moon
A sliver in the air
Sinks below a sturdy line
'Til barely there
[Chorus]
Where dreams are unretained
No, there's nothin' to recall
I won't wake up with a name
Or nothin' else at all
[Instrumental Outro]
