Old Magic Lyrics by Mariee Sioux

Grief in Exile Album Release Concert 6/9/19

2012

Oh we lost be old magic
Even tragic could not be a child to this
And when dolphins sink like stones
We will know that everyone's reached a higher heaven
For I have seen through your dear dear soul
All in gowns of velvety brown and fawn fire
And I wanna make the run with the coho
Up a dying river going ho-home
To a higher heaven
And I have seen you watching him
Metal and black powder
Elk teeth of ivory
The pounding of leather
Old coins in his eyes
And ever magic hands
Constellation skin
I have seen you watching him
Watching him
And we ran through the mule shadows
Hand in hand
Sorrows in sorrows
Chased by plastic deer and tarp spirits
Tripping over tools and sleeping bullets
Years of dusty praying
You picked a pouch off of your dad's tree
Poured it in my mouth to show me
How he'd saved all of your baby teeth
You said special fears they always win
Like a river been robbed of it's bend
A braid you just don't want end
And a snake who know's he'll never stand
Fingers that can't find their hand
A bead you just can't seem to strand
Oh don't you know that feeling?
Like someones been stealing all of your kindling?
So you taught the stones to talk
On the fawn fired path you walk
You taught the flames to talk
On the fawn fired path you walk
You taught the stones to talk
On the fawn fired path you walk
You taught the flames to talk
On the fawn fired path you walk
Walk with him
