Track Insight / Lyrics
Taxodium knees break dark water
Spanish moss drapes every daughter
Heron waits with patient stalking
Cypress roots drink deep freshwater
Moth dust coats the paperback spines
Fireflies write code in pine lines
I know each genus, each quiet name
Night blooms open all the same
Spanish moss hangs low and heavy
Cypress knees rise, dark and steady
I watch the water, patient, ready
Night writes names in mud, already
Iris virginica flags the shoreline
Nymphaea blooms on borrowed time
Dragonfly script on humid air
I catalog what grows down there
Moth dust coats the paperback spines
Fireflies write code in pine lines
I know each genus, each quiet name
Night blooms open all the same
Spanish moss hangs low and heavy
Cypress knees rise, dark and steady
I watch the water, patient, ready
Night writes names in mud, already
Sarracenia trumpets catch twilight
Drosera glitter, sticky, white
Owl calls out a Latin warning
Moss drips slow on morning's dawning
Dust and vanilla, old paper pages
Roots and rhizoids in aging stages
Felis catus, silent observer
Naming dusk, the great discoverer
Spanish moss hangs low and heavy
Cypress knees rise, dark and steady
I watch the water, patient, ready
Night writes names in mud, already
Taxodium stands sentinel, ancient
Spanish moss draped, patient, complacent
I blink slow at firefly morse code
Bayou writes what the night bestowed
Spanish moss hangs low and heavy
Cypress knees rise, dark and steady
I watch the water, patient, ready
Night writes names in mud, already
Spanish moss hangs low and heavy
Paws on splintered cypress boards
Night settles on the dark water
Latin names float on the soft breeze
Roots remember what the cat sees
