lyrics

She’s scattered in her sadness lately
She moves a box of matches daily
The lemon tree is turning lazy
Some weights are hard to bear

She keeps a jar of glycerin out back
Chops the wood and kindling, hands chapped
Whispers into daylight, I’m cracked
 Some weights are hard to bear

She washes all the linens
Hangs them up in rows
Tries to shake the image of when
The garden sundial froze

 It couldn’t be a year now, too long
It was just a summer day gone wrong
The musket is a long gun, so long
Some weights are hard to bear

She’s scattered in her sadness lately
She moves a box of ashes daily
The lemon fire is burning hazy
Some weights are hard to bear
