Lost wisdom Approaching shape in the low light You thought you knew me You thought our house was home I thought I knew myself I thought my heart was calm Thunder, lightning, tidal wave The wind blew down the door Lost wisdom The river goes through the room I saw your picture out of nowhere And forgot what I was doing Everything vanished in your eclipse A constellation of moments comes to life in the void Lost wisdom Face down under the moss Enraptured by the beautiful face in the billowing flames I open the front and back door and let the wind blow through And I stood in the house and tried to hold the breeze Lost wisdom Waking up in a pile of ash Secret knowledge Comes to me in the dusk It showed me the river I saw me
