Weavers Knot

### **[Verse 1]**
Whisper invoke the artists of this tragically seamless, ill-fated tapestry
Blistered fingers tending their loom
She collects the strands to braid into lives
Logging the weft of an ageless woven infinity

### **[Chorus]**
Countless raw fibers clawing the frame
A woman's work is never done
But the final stitch has got to come
And so three witches contend to slice the very last thread
That you curse, curse constantly
Tie the knot

### **[Verse 2]**
Nothing's immortal and comfort is not guaranteed
A yearling that bears our sincere passions, is chosen, frozen and quivering
Like the thread in the wake of a blade
And so we compromise, so we sacrifice
Compromise nothing, but that which secures a comfortable life

### **[Bridge]**
Risk as an indication of a healing sacrifice
Destroy the altar whose boundaries tides will never exceed
Ignite the pyres underneath a sedated mythology
Five decades his lifetime, and his life's work faded scratches in stone
She tends to numerals, counting fingers, counting her toes

### **[Hook]**
Keeping track of time racing years wasting
Dance to the sound of his weight bearing back breaking
Infinite ages the length of this quilt's making
And we dance, and we dance in the stronghold
That you curse, curse constantly

### **[Verse 3]**
An eternal patch on a quilt that hangs from a wall in a throw fraught with our decay
An eternal patch fraught with our decay, remembered forever til it goes away
From 6 states away, 5 years of guilt postmarked 4 days before my escape
My dad's favorite novel on top of the pile in this self-conscious shake
The memory of his smile
Igniting these volumes, igniting these volumes
I'm warmed by the flames

### **[Outro]**
Alter the deafening earthen tones
In the nervous light, I dance in the nervous light
And I'm warmed by the flames
Dance to the sound of his weight bearing back fucking breaking
Slowly breaking

Dictate the deafening earthen tones
Alter the pitch of his weight bearing back breaking
We can dictate the pitch of our weight bearing back breaking
Alter the tone of your weight bearing back breaking
We can mend all the seams that were torn during our backs slowly breaking
In the nervous light, the nervous light of Sunday
