Lyrics

Unopened mail on the window sash,
Knife on the sill where the nights turn ash.
Your weather changed like a borrowed coat;
I patched the roof and I stayed afloat.
Church-bell dust on a Monday spine,
Gravel like prayer under truck bed pine.
Truth keeps books when the noise won't pay;
Silence adds up what the words won't say.
In the small hours, under tall pines,
I count the rings in the hurt I survived.
Kept your key, but I kept my mind—
I learned to lose what I couldn't find.
If home is a voice and not a sign,
I'll follow the grain, not the worn-out line.
Coffee ring maps on the county page,
We drew forever with a shaking gauge.
You loved the mirror, I loved the frame;
You needed thunder, I needed rain.
Barn light hums like a moth-bit hymn,
I bless the start we forgot to begin.
Grace writes small in the margins late;
I underlined once, then turned the page.
In the small hours, under tall pines,
I count the rings in the hurt I survived.
Kept your key, but I kept my mind—
I learned to lose what I couldn't find.
If home is a voice and not a sign,
I'll follow the grain, not the worn-out line.
I was the porch that waited lit,
You were the road that never fit.
So I changed the lock to a softer code—
My name walked first, and the heart followed.
Let the past hang quiet on its nail;
I'll take the sky and leave the tale.
Small hours, tall pines, steady air—
I make a life that meets me there.
