Music: Chris Morrissey Time and place is written on their faces Queen Anne's lace is white as all these empty pages
Write my mother write my father Ink as black as the open water Where I float on my back, and the lines that I write keep getting longer
Sign my name in every corner of the frame Every last long blade is green from all the rain
Slow down summer, I love her It's over now, we're under the tree And it's yellowing like butter
She's autumn leaves to me Shimmering canopy A melody in mildest key
Press my hands into the bed to lift my head Oh, it got cold again Outside the sky is a line of red
Slow down morning, you were born And in a hurry ever since Well, it's hard to pay attention And you're easy to miss
But you're there for me You make prisms of the frozen weeds You make rainbows on ice sheets But it's hard to see
