lyrics
There are moles that have whittled a mountain down. Tthere are trenches, that war-dug, shall never be filled.
We've kissed and we've killed just for the salt and the thrill. But we shall always be alone and thirsting for more.
There are flies that climb, die and spawn a thousand times, just to reach the fruitless summit.
and the only beasts we've left alive are ones to be yolked and collared.
there are wolves remembered as bellwethers, when the flock sticks to their ribs.
....but with such close-shorn sight we are soon to forget
We've kissed and we've killed just for the salt and the thrill. But we shall always be alone and thirsting for more.
There are flies that climb, die and spawn a thousand times, just to reach the fruitless summit.
and the only beasts we've left alive are ones to be yolked and collared.
there are wolves remembered as bellwethers, when the flock sticks to their ribs.
....but with such close-shorn sight we are soon to forget

Turns (the song, in particular) is precisely the music I wish I could write. It has a melancholic/introspective feel while still having drive behind it.

Laying in the high dry grass, listening to the crickets playing their song, wondering if times of true serenity were never over, but right there under my nose, the whole time.
