lyrics

i left my bags unpacked
that’s my rap
i knew the mood and yet
so indirect

then i see your photos
then i feel your floor fan
then i find your camera
and your collar, too

no light in leaving
no holding hands
they’re often bleeding
on a mighty man

i left my bags unpacked
so glad we met
you moved and went out west
you left no mess

i never see your photos
i put away your floor fan
i threw away your camera
and your collar, too

dead friends are calling
it’s not too late
the signs are saying
i’d rather wait
the search is coming
they know your name
but don’t be fearful
we cast no blame

bone-idle people
whose time has passed
still lost in long nights
they won’t come back
no cars are coming
we must be last
so don’t be anxious
it’ll happen fast
