Rain Lyrics by Nora Nygard

The Ghosts Beneath Our Feet

2022

You spent your first year gone inside electricity
Flying through Mom, knocking her off her feet
What did you do to my throat?
Whispering my name in my ear like a ghost
Boys I can smell the salt
We must be so close
The fog in Port Orford
Like a veil of smoke
Age of action in a big red van
We couldn’t go any further west if we tried
I know I seem like I’m somewhere else
But you’re the only reason I’m left alive
The blood borders the flame
Gasoline your hands soak and wring and shake
A desperate head with eyes erased
Turned in you speak yourself goodbye reverberate
When I look into water I see God
If we’re made in your image then why not
Small rewards for staying alive
Faders & peace, flint in their teeth
I’ve spent thousands of hours of this life of mine
In dresses in my sleep
It’s been ten years since I've seen you
Now you’re younger than me, you couldn't understand why
Why I had taken so long to come visit
You didn’t know you’d died
The sky wisps underneath itself
Small voices out the window
Pizza and beer on the lawn
I wanna be a mom
I always dreamed of dying by the ocean
In the grass by the edge of a cliff
Sit with the clear blue sky
Take my dose and sink
When you are alone
When you are in pain
You can hear me in the wind
You can feel me in the rain
Dad slept right by your crib
Little lungs wheezing out and in
She walked on water that Wednesday
I held her foot until we flooded the stage
This is where we sat and watched
As the thunderstorm rolled in
But you were alone
Yeah I was alone
And maybe that’s the only way I could ever be happy
I’m not here, everything is a dream, the present doesn’t exist
I don’t recognize my hands, legs, face, or voice as my own
My vision is blurry, I don’t hear or see things normally
Everything is hazy, I blank out, I’m not here, I blank out, I’m not here
Serving size fireball in the dirt outside the church
When you kill the rabbit you become the curse
I wanna leave but I can’t god dammit
He takes off my clothes and tells me it’s magic
At thirteen years, I could tell that you knew
Is this the last time I’ll be seeing you?
I could feel the love in your eyes
I know it hurts. I want you to be alright
Sweet angel, do you remember how you had to leave
The basement where you sank below my feet
The vomit and the pain and the shit on the bed
Wherever you are now, I hope you can forget
My hands are dripping with empty answers
The summer after fell like a ransom
We’re all so lonesome in your kingdom
I can’t feel anything
When you are alone
When you are in pain
I can hear you in the wind
I can feel you in the rain
Washed in golden light, I watch you
Disappear down the storm drain
Burn you away in the middle of your lake
Damned to dream of your face
