Orygun Song

from Ocean​(​s) by Call Hollow

/

lyrics

the barn was burning hard against the rain
and it got hard to see so we gave in
when it was morning there
a twist of sinews in the chair
fought hard to hold the light in

and up from my styrofoam breakfast bowl
looking through the lobby window
I saw the beach across the street
it seemed the world branched out from my feet
and I felt distance
and I felt bigness
a warmth that I had never known

the nervous oceans come and go
in and out like an out of range radio
the nervous oceans, a nervous motion
to and fro

and now, fiercely shining on
this hotel in Oregon
brighter than the moon
I'll miss you when you're gone
but I'll be moving on
pretty soon

it's a nervous ocean, I know I know
nervous notions come and go
I know

you never earn what you get
but I ain't learned that yet
I'm gonna get good before I get gone
then I'll be moving on
