Lyrics:

Where is joy?
I have forgotten
The shape of it
The feel of it
on my tongue
Against my skin
I will await it's return
Like the cicada

[Chorus]
I forget the sound of rain
The shape of joy, the weight of pain
Winters strip my name away
Till the soil swallows what I’ve been
And I wake, a stranger in my skin

Bury me in the woods
On the bank of a creek
Just deep enough
To bathe my feet
Before my entombment
Beneath decaying leaves
Blown against the embankment
A winter and winter and winter ago

[Chorus]
I forget the sound of rain
The shape of joy, the weight of pain
Winters strip my name away
Till the soil swallows what I’ve been
And I wake, a stranger in my skin

I will embrace the roots of the red oak
Male a pillow of the lichen
Listen to the symphony of the spiders
Let the chanterelle and amanita
Find purchase in my bones
Until the long night ends
And I wake again
To sing
Or scream

[Outro]
To scream
Scream
Scream
Scream
