about

from the Cd "Undertow"

lyrics

Empty

i’m empty like the desert
in a squall of sand
drift up a river
where’s the promised land

vacant in the sunlight
with eyes half-mast
hose down the present
while the leaves float past

i hid here when you looked for me
always hoped i’d make you see

i¹m empty like a crater
on the moon’s dark side
trade wind mocks
the words i tried

vacant like a crevice
where the womb began
empty in fullness
i’m your pregnant man

i hid here when you looked for me
always hoped i’d make you see

i’m empty in the quiet
of the final time
curled under cover
while the cracked bells chime

i’ll be here when you look for me
always hoped i’d make you see
