lyrics

Hush little one, just listen. My fickle heart is trying to talk,
but we've been struck by a common weakness, and now our words keep wandering off.

And as they skip and stumble off of the road we've set them on, this useless tongue is humbled, knowing his was a misheard song.
Oh, I had good intentions. I never thought they'd do us wrong. But i've got no pretensions, I know these blind sounds will shuffle along.


We are all lonely readers marching through the same fertile text, and as we read we write with the same eyes, sowing and reaping seeds we were born to beget.
And through this hollow bone runs a river, a babbling brook who's source i've yet to find.
Its mighty roar is the first i remember. Its generous etchings shaped my infant mind.

Now little one, quit listening. My heart is done trying to talk,
And all your debts are forgiven, no sound remains save the ticking clock.
