about

alta gracia

lyrics

ten years is too damn long a time
to still hear parts of your voice in mind
and i still can't begin to comprehend
just where i'll begin
and where you'll end

three thousand miles is just much too high a toll
wearing down the thread that frays around my soul
and i won't give credit until it's due
the broken line that exists
between me & you

and oh my god, i've wasted so much time
dreaming
and nothing quite turns out the way it's
seeming
i'm drifting through the floes
trust no one i suppose
i'm full to teeming

across town, a place that neither of us know
in a booth, cast askance, lights down low
you asked me where it was
that i first heard
and my thickened tongue
struggled to find words

so i'll dress up my face
just like a shroud
this kind of quiet does mean nothing
without loud
cross my arms and i hope
that i die
you couldn't even bring yourself
to meet my eye

and oh my god, i've wasted so much time
dreaming
and nothing quite turns out the way it's
seeming
i'm dancing through the floes
trust no one i suppose
i'm full to teeming
