Ten miles I've walked today Along the shore I saw your ghost again The seasoning and birds gather to go And I laid down at the top of a cliff Confessed my sins into the wind And the sky lay a feather in my mouth
Good lord it was a beautiful day For untangling, unraveling my heavy heart away To forgive and forget myself and my enemies, my bruises washed away
Today, was the day, I first said "I belong." Here in the ghost region All alone upon the shore This changing line between land and sea Between a cease-fire and a war
And down by the foot of the cliff Where I gathered shells and watched the swells Blossom up around my feet I saw the ribcage of some wreck on the rocks What a tragic cost, for getting lost, when you just can't find the light through this fog
But today, was the day, I first said "I belong. I belong." Here in the ghost region All alone upon the shore This changing line between land sea Between a cease-fire and a war Between a cease-fire and a war
