lyrics

I can see everything
the watchband the battery
the gears and machinery
the song you are making up

the plane as it's taking off
the pictures in pockets
the thrusters and rockets
the heartbeats that are quickening.

The nails in the rafters
the pulling and strengthening
the arc of the hammering
the forester counting rings

and all of it is singing
every action
every reaction
is just adding a voice.

The moon the conductor
summoning waves
the thundering drummers
the first responders

the surfers can hear it
and bring it ashore
in stories on stereos
seaglass on windowsills.

The birds are all saying it
over and endlessly
the wind in the trees
shows us every secret

and baby you're entering
the wild and the wonderful
the stark and ineffable
but first and foremost you're alive.
