Lyrics for A Noiseless Noise

Absence. Cold moon comes down curdling Through reddenin' leaves, Falling, falling. Know you every tear in these woods. Know you every place of good and not-good. 'Tween sleep and wake and bellyache, Each path unhealed and stumpied. Charkened embers. The end of summer. Reeve the river's tongue of silver – Come away love and leave your wandering ... Just a noiseless noise, Just a gawly girl, Just a bogus boy – Trapes the fields of feasen To a chammer of not-sleeping. Go home now love, leave your wandering ...
