about

I love this song

Original: pinegrove.bandcamp.com/track/rings

lyrics

I draw a line in my life
Singing "This is the new way I behave now"
& actually live by the shape of that sound

Circle in the back of my throat
Spinning in my head & on my pillow
Telling you things you don't need to know
Letting you know I trust you so much

Then I'm looking at you through the lights
Circle blinking in the tungsten
Wondering how I seem to you
Forgetting the words I'm singing for you

Am I forgetting how it felt?

You're sleeping with your rings on
Cardinal wings in the early morning
Waking up to a metaphor forming

I draw a line in my skin
I'm pinning down inchoate meaning
Mark me right below the ampersand
Perforate line dry summer on my own land

Then it circulates around town
Do I double down because I'm stubborn?
The needle on the phonographic sound
You're digging it up as soon as it's drawn down

Am I forgetting how it felt?

If you sing along do I remember it?
Mark this feeling in the simplest shape
Let me finally let it fall away

Away
