lyrics

Branches were the spines and ghosts and stories. Junipers stood motionless in time. Bristlecones and pines and alders dancing. Before this shadowed ocean and in my mind.

Can I have the courage to do what I want to do? Will the junipers remember who I am? Sat down by a river, it gave me everything I need. Can I dance with the white pines in the white light?

Winters a lonely saint

Can you watch with me the red oak swaying? Disregard the fact we can't stay true, to all those thoughts we've been set on believing. For years the junipers been the only truth.

The dusty road is calling out a stalemate. I've traveled but I've never really gone to the place where the sycamores are breathing, the alders and the evergreens are worn.
