Burrowing Time Lyrics

Taking walks down the paths

Again and again

Re-visitations reconsiderations of the learnt and the left

Spiders webbing and ebbing and tidal consuming

Losing my ankles to the peat-lands, the bog

In the midst of it all

I see spirals surround me

As if time caught my wrist and turned me back to face it all

I've been following time like the chase of a deer

I've been following time keeping me out of my sight

The energy of low sun reflects in my limbs

What to fight for is dulled by hibernation

The coldest moon for a long time

It's not over yet

Regathering after winter death

I have hands that can only do as much as I will them

But does something stronger and older will them too

To stand chilled or wrapped warm

In Burrowing time

It's from those who come next that we're borrowing time

Well i found so much to be true

Now it's faltering

Pining for shared stories

To wrestle with my ego in

The wisdom of those who took life from these deaths

Those who acknowledge the void

And go into the depths
