The Story
In a house that groans with memory, a man carves birds from river-worn driftwood and lines them on the windowsill — small, hollow-boned things that lean toward the glass as if they might fly to where she went. The mountain doesn’t remember their dance on the ridge, but the timber holds the weight of every step.
Lyrics
the river yields its heavy scrap
cedar washed pale by the silt
my iron blade finds the heart
peeling back the winter skin
cedar washed pale by the silt
my iron blade finds the heart
peeling back the winter skin
i set them on the ledge
(hollow bones)
to watch the frost on the meadow
waiting for a breath of you
(hollow bones)
your wool shawl hangs by the stove
holding the shape of your shoulders
i carve a sparrow’s small chest
light enough to ride the draft
the house groans in the evening
moving to a three-beat step
every bird leans toward the glass
asking where the summer went
the mountain does not remember
how we danced upon the ridge
but the timber holds the weight
