about

Written by Charlie Loudin & Zach Loudin

lyrics

this is a forest
and here are the things we know that roar:
bears, amplifiers, stars and their children,
any place where moving water touches,
land, the night,
the roar of the beginning, and joy
moving in moments when the present jumps and dives
from a great height
from a loud place

we can be oceans
we can sleep in those fields
as liquid sparks accumulate around us
everything, for as long as you want
is the lens through which the light passes red?
or was the ocean made crimson by the seeds of pomegranates?
can you see all of this, too?

I know you now in such warm light
I listen to the ocean in you
with my cheek against your throat
and my hand on your hip
during this time that isn’t time
your breathing becomes the entire world
I know you best in warm, low light
falling, happy, lavender: in silence.

our hearts pounding
those waves have such force behind them
as they fill all 70 millimeters
and twenty to twenty-thousand hertz
many hours of the best days
on the beaches, in the valleys near silence
you are a woodland lion
and a live, lithe, fluid wire moving underneath
conducting

let’s lie down in this library
graceful and imprecise
draw shadows on the ceiling
pull some night into our lungs
what’s been a long time coming
may be a long time going, too
and remembering is echoing, too
is it time to go?

I know you now in such warm light
I listen to the ocean in you
with my cheek against your throat
and my hand on your hip
past perfect, this was a forest
drifting above substantial loudness
dig this lush languid exposition
thinking/not thinking
and falling: in silence

little fox
little fire
little flower
paw-prints in the snow
the best thing in a long time
remember all those steps in the snow?
remember how fast the clouds were moving
when we stood still?
