Cinder Well - Gone the Holding

Limestone and the empty road
A flower bed of yellow roses
I’ve got another call coming down the line
Leaning out of broken blinds
Spider's thread in the edges fly
Flicker in the A-frame
Golden tepid light

Gone the holding we were in
From the cold Atlantic wind
Ferry port, metal wing
To other shores us they bring

These doors that rattle
In vaping wind and out of time
To let it be enough tonight, we’re running out of time
Lines in soil lines in sky
I am alone in the fields tonight
And alone I may remain
Stark like consequence

Gone the holding we were in
From the cold Atlantic wind
Ferry port, metal wing
To other shores us they bring

Blackbirds scattered at the green
Gathering in the barren tree
Grief rises heavy
Ascend into the night
Damp clothes on the line
Shaking fence, quivering pines
Terrace echo
Coming back to life

Gone the holding we were in
From the cold Atlantic wind
Ferry port, metal wing
To other shores us they bring

These doors that rattle
In vaping wind and out of time
To let it be enough tonight
We’re running out of time
