Track Insight / Lyrics

You rest on sandstone warmed by noon Opuntia pads observe your tune The bow hair rots where dust convenes Yucca spines guard the broken seams Lichen writes its slow score on maple Atriplex roots drink what the rain made able Each corrosion note a mineral chord The desert writes what hands ignored Mesa rust sings louder now Than any bow could teach it how Creosote and oxide ring The song that only dust can bring Canyon wind carries the refrain Wood returns to dust again Varnish flakes like shed snake skin Seasoned spruce lets the outside in Pegbox cracks where tuning died Saltbush shadows stretch out wide Lichen writes its slow score on maple Atriplex roots drink what the rain made able Each corrosion note a mineral chord The desert writes what hands ignored Mesa rust sings louder now Than any bow could teach it how Creosote and oxide ring The song that only dust can bring Canyon wind carries the refrain Wood returns to dust again F-holes gape like dry river mouths Swallowing light from north and south Bridge lifts loose from pressure's grip Prickly pear offers no slip No rosin left for fingers now Just quartz and time on fingerboard brow The luthier's glue surrenders deep To secrets that the sediments keep Mesa rust sings louder now Than any bow could teach it how Creosote and oxide ring The song that only dust can bring Canyon wind carries the refrain Wood returns to dust again Scroll curls back like drying frond The music moves to root and beyond Final note oxidizes red Mesquite roots drink what the strings once said Mesa rust sings louder now Than any bow could teach it how Creosote and oxide ring The song that only dust can bring Canyon wind carries the refrain Wood returns to dust again Mesa rust sings louder now L
