Nightlights II Lyrics by Nana Grizol

Ursa Minor

2017

The shy and lonely hunter
Who stalks across my chest
Says, “I’m only seeking glory,” yeah
But glory never gives you any
Rest me to your body in an arm chair
Wrest me to the corner of your bed
Rest me in the place we share our tenderness
It’s there I’ll rest my head another night
Lights at the end of the hallway
Will lead you to the back of the bar
We're cloudy headed, late for bed
You wonder where those fleeting families
Are you living somewhere on the west coast
Are you just a figment of my mind
Aren’t you the one that always told me
“Boy, it’s easier with time” to be the
Saddest sound in a lullaby
Speck of sand in your daddy’s eye
Broke my heart to so much as try
To live the life that lay before me
So you step tender when you don’t run
So you surrender to everyone
So you remember the place you’ve come to
Don’t forget the world adores you
Said, “I am but my body: heart and shaking skin”
How ever will you find a safe place where
You never let anyone into the space where you
Keep all your timid questions
Like, “Can I kiss you one more time before I go?”
Though I know the world is full of awesome suggestions
It’s us who get caught in the undertow, don’t you know
We were born on a moving train
We took form in the pouring rain
We try hard but come short of explaining
That lives are for living and hearts are for changing
Forget, an instant, to stay the same
Not us nor mountains go as they came
All these things we refuse to be framed in
From what we’ve been given to what’s rearranging, yeah
