lyrics

The Alicon House

the ladies keening at the grave
and the boys playing cards on the coffin lid
my sister is screaming in her sleep
for the goats she let out of the gate she left open again

but what of the tower and what of the oak
undried fruits they cracked as we spoke
and the wheel of the loom to the dust to the earth
to the earth what am I
to the earth what am I
I am lost
I am frozen in the dawn
at the Alicon House
I am tracing the runes, I’m still tracing the runes at your feet

to the house that I know
I am further from it now
heard the walls crack and fell fodder to the ground
I am further from it now
cut the leather and bury the sound
I am further from it now
