about

Written by Andrew Craven

lyrics

half week back in town, late in the evening and year
tasteless tower clock, two letters and personal effects for if and when you're near
"dear jeanne, please turn this sheet
over and stare into the void
join me, cumberland field, on christmas eve in the endless static joy"

distance is feminine in Spanish
distance is distance in French
and it's everything that everyone's been whispering everywhere I've been

with less that's freezing every December
and more of everything we've known continues to melt
each of us becomes something closer to impossible

"say J,
if you could just ask me to stay
this ritual could stop
and I wouldn't have to carry these rotten
letters home
every fourth season
and wait for you to show
from eve to eve
behind the statues in the snow
but I always will, and alone
if this or anything else finds you
I can only hope"
