This song is about the future archaeologist that helped start The Earthly Frames. First released in 2010, this track has been remixed and remastered by Alan Douches at West West Side Music in 2016.
The sails subside.
The witness deny the wreaths he lays in.
The counting.
The carrying.
The blessings of tin.
The circling crow.
The idle foe, the lanes they stay in.
The self-contained.
The brief distain for the places we’ve been.
The heckling dove.
The Easter shove.
You’ve reached back again.
The cresting wave.
The lost arcade.
You’ve reached back again.
The lesson lost.
The evening frost.
The phantom’s last limb.
The sharpened call.
The falling wall.
The reigns have been trimmed.
Now I know that you know the cause of my grin.
Now I know that you know you’ve reached back again.
The painted peach.
The second bleach.
The bruised last limb.
The shadow kite.
The harbor's site growing ever so dim.
Now I know that you know the cause of my grin.
Now I know that you know you’ve reached back again.
