lyrics

the sun marched through the canopy and tried to make its way to the willow tree
when the birds began to see, they tried to stop the fire's reach
they soaked all the branches and moved east
they moved away to escape the sun's fury
and when night fell on the man of the sea, he was lost in the forest
he was looking for me
there were campfires beneath every tree and he followed them to the willow tree where he found himself and he found me feeling cold and wet and feeling lonely
he carried me out to the depths of the sea where i died and moved out to the city
and i was content and living happily
but i was picked up by the sea breeze
and i was carried back to the willow tree
some drunk men cut it down and then they looked at me
and i was chopped up and my bones were buried
that was the last time that you could ever see me.

about

Matt Aspinwall

with the infusion of friends’ idears, influence, and overall assistance, it wouldn’t be fair to keep putting it all under the porch of “matt aspinwall”. so “black lake” it is.
