Will Wood - Cicada Days
With ashes of sparrows, peppered moths, and butterflies
Ghosts of trees and termites bloom in the beanstalk
And if you get lightheaded when standing too fast
As if shaking out the weight of phosphenes
And past salt deposits of warm middle rivers that burst from our words
And God knows crying ain't gonna change a thing
She said take care, but I take more than I bring
She said it just feels inhumane to lose this much
'Cause when you leave you know you take more than your lovе
Wake up in a cicada daze, we'rе losing touch
And I know it just feels inhumane to lose this much
Our veins were tangled under plastic stars
The will of glow in the dark hanging over queen-sized purple waves
Of ancient chemicals just whisper
And did you ever build with those endangered bones?
Well the ground looks soft enough to bury this now
Oh please, oh no
And then my sponsor said "Do nothing. Nothing works."
And then my doctor said "Don't do that if it hurts."
She said it just feels inhumane to lose this much
'Cause when you leave you know you take more than your love
Wake up in a cicada daze, we're losing touch
And I know it just feels inhumane to lose this much
Oh, oh, oh, let all my red flags fade to white, yeah I give up
Don't let me leave, I'll only take more than I gave
Okay, I'll pack my stuff
I'm counting up cicada days 'til I wake up
And my God, it feels damn inhumane to lose this much
Oh, oh, oh, oh, so
Keep coming back
It works if you work it, so work it, you're worth it, it won't if you don't
One day at a time, tomorrow's too late, amen
