about

connecting us to those who have come before us and those who will come after: our lives are bundles of lines. if we could see these lines, they’d be everywhere...

like the webs of spiders natures great repairers

lyrics

LINES
there is a cord that hangs below
these are the lines we follow
there is a cord that hangs above
the lines we draw together

a cord that flexes to the ground
these are the lines we follow
it tugs and pulls as i climb down
the lines we draw together

i see early morning rain
these are the lines we follow
her jet black hair unravelling
the lines we draw together

i see you swimming in the river
these are the lines we follow
see you riding past the prisoners
the lines we draw together

red flags hanging from the window
these are the lines we follow
all weighted down with grief and sorrow
the lines we draw together

it’s the night before the last train
these are the lines we follow
how beautiful and how mundane
are the lines we draw together

i’m sorry i can’t stay too long
these are the lines we follow
it’s an earthly nest i rest upon
the lines we draw together

a cord that flexes to the sky
these are the lines we follow
it tugs and pulls and i start to climb
the lines we draw together

the tangle of our dying words
the bundles of baby clothes
the knotted threads of all we know now
these are the lines we follow

the tug, the pull, the circle
of skin and bone and feather
constantly unravel
the lines we draw together
