lyrics

In quiet shuffling of feet and faces
deck of cards for the masses
I watch the fine lines of your back move
I run my fingers over them

They are like
beautiful rivers
they are my pleasure

This is where I lay my head
this is where I take my rest

And when we awake there is a moon hanging over
its orbiting around us and we are its center

There is a place with no name
we built it from our blood and bones and beings
we filled it with all of our collected moments
and we left it sitting quietly in secret
and I will take my meals there
I will build a fire
this is my Graceland
this is my shelter

I created this and I can break it
but I will wait in the fire

Kittiwake

Kittiwakes are coastal breeding birds ranging in the North Pacific, North Atlantic and Arctic oceans. The black-legged kittiwake is often known simply as kittiwake. The name is derived from the birds call, a song 'kittee-wa-ake, kittee-wa-ake'. Colonies can be found throughout the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands to southeast Alaska. In the winter, the range extends further south and out to sea. ... more
