I lit a candle
Out in the woods
I watched it fade
Until the sun came up
I peeled the wax
Off of my hand
I read the notes
Before they sank
I took my spade
Buried the candle
I'll let the wolves
Dig up it's bones
The other night I swear I could hear it singing
Warming the ground and turning the roots a greasy black
Sap is flooding
Treading through a swamp of rot
I'm swimming in a lake full of the shit I shoveled in
Open the drain
Clear the gutter
I lit a candle
Out in the woods
I watched it fade
Until the sun came up
I peeled the wax
Off of my hand
I read the notes
Before they sank
I took my spade
Buried the candle
I'll let the wolves
Dig up it's bones
