lyrics

and from the trunk sprung new flesh
an oak in form, but skin nonetheless
and the warning of whalebone wrapped around time
and the spines in the branches continued to climb
through the air, infinite in their amorphous design
and though I describe them, they remain undefined

and one day I will die
and the sun, it will rise
and may be so bright
that it hurts your eyes

no effects added to the music beyond EQ and panning.

all acoustic.
