Текст песни All but Our Bones - Langdon

I heard from someone the forests are getting wider
Coming up so much faster than they cut them down
You made a remark on the insects in the twilight
Flickering, hovering, they′re all around

As Venus gleams, I'm remembering

Barefoot and anxious, drawing birds in the sawdust
We droned like cicadas till the leaves matched the sky
We counted the rings in the stump of a dogwood
With a fistful of foxgloves I promised I′d try

To love like a fiend
And crash like the sea
As Venus gleams, I'm remembering

Oh and when we are old, when we're all but our bones
That′s when we′ll know what it means to be tethered
And when those old cords are so tangled and worn
That they break from the weight of the days that we weathered
We'll return to the loam
And we′ll fly to our home
Tied with a bow in her memory

And in the tall grass where she lost all her ribbons
Doing cartwheels with a spaniel running laps underneath
I found some red stones that the neighbor kid threw
At a murder of crows in the oak by the street
