The dust in kicking up, windy night in New Mexico Watching the moon rise up over cactus & canals Listening to rocks become pebbles Filling our stomachs with cold water Under the blanket you wove for me, the one we slept in On that cold October night, when we thought the sun would never rise And when it did, it shone with such brillance Stuck our hands out, between the cracks, just to catch its radiance To stop the shaking, it set me on edge Made me want to run, just to feel myself sweat But I'd just fall facedown in the snow Lost in a canyon, full of black rocks, dead trees And a silence we forgot existed
