a song about saying goodbye
from a streamed show on May 30, 2020 with Nixie Unterwelt and Jem Violet

lyrics:
it's dark and getting darker
the full moon will always wane
each day it's a little harder
each time i hear her name
and you know i tried to hold her
like trying to hold a flame
when i pulled her close
she danced away

it was summer
her eyes were thunder
her hand in mine was the stillness after rain
it was summer
her lips were water
the day she told me that she had to go away

she was strange and getting stranger
the kind of girl that no one really knows
spilling blood and speaking mysteries
poor substitutes for hope
and you know i tried to tell her
not to face it on her own
but there's a place where she is strong
and it's a place where i can't go

it was summer
her eyes were fire
her hand in mine was a kestrel in a cage
it was summer
my heart was breaking
still i wouldn't dare ask her to stay

it was summer
the last time i saw her
now the earth's been frozen for weeks
she will never come back to me

we never did belong here
caught up in that fateful tide
i hope i see you little sister
in the forest inside
