lyrics

The Hunt

Didn’t want to believe that it’s all dead
Even as you tried to tell me
Didn’t want to believe that it’s all dead
Even as you tried to show me

The sound went off -- hands beating a silent tattoo
Wild to get away, the dogs were set loose

(I refuse to believe it was all a mistake)

I have my hunting boots on and I’m crossing a brown field
Searching for carcasses to satisfy a yield

Somewhere, someone’s waiting idly by the window
Hands folded quietly and glinting with gold

(You hold up each body triumphant)

With crude stitches you sewed my ribbon onto your breast
You thought I needed proof that you loved me the best

I have a gun slung cross my hip, a bow and arrow
I have bloody fists and rot webbed in my marrow

Somewhere, someone’s wounded and fields are burning
Somewhere, someone’s been healed, don’t know where the wind is turning

There’s a fire in the hearth, there is green inside the twig
There’s a crocus in the earth, there’s a heart beat in the plumage

"[This album is] spare but rich, each song a perfectly encapsulated story. Each story underscored by its own emotional tone, a soft touch that cuts to the quick."
