Because Of Course

from Spaces Erases (fdm128) by Chris Anderson

lyrics

beyond the howling of the wind
this blanket covers me
it gives me comfort to no end
as far as i can see again

and all those photographs
they make me laugh, they make me scream
this tunnel-vision dream
a mad revisionist can seem so wise
there's nothing left to say
just don't get in my way this time

among the fever of those days
there was a love right there
it hit my heart and warmed my face
it's not like that everywhere, they say

and all those songs i sang
about how it was to stay away
are like journalistic rays of light
some kind of power play
there's nothing left to say
just don't get in the way, no way

sometimes i sit and wonder why
this island speaks to me
the fog and wind and boulder high
i never felt so free, oh my

these memories stay alive
so long as i can see the light
i’ll soak it deep inside
and feel the rhythm of this ride
to take it in besides
these scattered moments of our lives
there's nothing left to say
just don't get in my way this time
