From the recording Ex Nihilo
Lyrics
I am the arrow that misses the mark
And I am the seer who glows in the dark
I am the sweetness (can you see me?) that rots from within (can you read me?)
And I am the weakness that never gives in
If you’ve got a letter, don’t pick up the phone
Just spill your ink and make your grievance known
Speak your truth and nothing less, then send to my address:
“Today’s hero...yesterday’s fucking mess”
I was the maker of the savior’s sandal
And I was the fire that spent itself like a candle
I was the light (can you see me?), and I was the key (can you read me?)
I was the final word of the first one to see
If you’ve got a letter, then don’t pick up the phone
Just spill your ink and make your grievance known
Speak your truth and nothing less, then send to my address:
“Today’s hero...and yesterday’s fucking mess”
