vault forever - surface never

i'm notoriously not a spring person.
that said, here are some screengrabs of my latest home movie: the ghost closet
(or antifashion in the time of coronavirus)

no one seems to be around
they must've all gone off without me again
i think i'll head home

maybe i'll find them gathered 'round my doorstep
oh to sleep in a comfortable bed

no one seems to be around
they must've all gone off
without me again
i think i'll head home
i think i'll head home

there's someone i'd like to see
she never mentions a word to me
she reads Leviathan

i think i'll head home
i think i'll head home
i think i'll head home..

if all that grows starts to fade, starts to falter
oh let me inside, let me inside, not to wait
let all that run through the fields
through the quiet
go on with their own
on with their own hidden ways

when all the newness of gold travels far from
where it had once been
born like the earth over years

& when the acts of man
cause the ground to break open
oh let me inside, let me inside, not to wait

great are the sounds of all that live
& all that man can hold..

i have been cruel & kind without knowing
i fell into silence overwhelmed by these days
for i have been shown empty rulers
ruling all things

thinking the world was mine to lay hold of
i breathed in the promise of maiden & man
but each had their own illusions to hold onto

i only want to be left to my own ways
the rulers have won leaving all things undone

i stood in awe of the whole creation
gathered among them was the morning
giving all its rest

thinking the world was mine to be lost in
i ran with the freedom & sang in between

for i had the path of wonder
there before me..

i must be careful now in my steps
years of calculations & the stress

let me not get down if i'm walking with no one
& if i stumble from exhaustion

let me not be too consumed with this world
sometimes i want to go home
& stay out of sight for a long time

let me not be too concerned with this world
sometimes i want to go home
& stay out of sight for a long time..
