Ironwood Lament

(hummmm) (ahhhh) Static sits upon the wire

Sinking lower in the cold

We built a castle out of timber

For a story never told

And we fall right through the flooring

Into the deep, silent space

Keep the quiet, keep the longing

Just a shadow of your face

Broken glass along the pavement

Catching light that isn't there

Hold the breath we always wasted

Heavy hanging in the air

Let the current take us over

Let the wooden beams collide

We are waiting in the water

Fall right through... (ahhhh)
