TRU NORTH by Evan Schafer Lyrics
There’s an arrow
Where the wind goes
As the layers
Play on an old fame
Where’s the starling
That used to sing
As if contained
Sounds from a dark room
Charred as tusk
Why I ONCE WAS BEAMING
Where did those years go?
See as TRU NORTH wings
Fly us out
Where’s the paintings
Once in a gallery
As if set out to sea
On a boat with no oars
I was going south
Told me it was west
Thought it was east
Was actually north
Hearth with family
How it used to be
Where did these days go
Feel as TRU NORTH wings
Fly out at dusk
Where’s the artwork
Once on these walls
As if set abroad
Off an old flame?
Where the wind goes
As the layers
Play on an old fame
Where’s the starling
That used to sing
As if contained
Sounds from a dark room
Charred as tusk
Why I ONCE WAS BEAMING
Where did those years go?
See as TRU NORTH wings
Fly us out
Where’s the paintings
Once in a gallery
As if set out to sea
On a boat with no oars
I was going south
Told me it was west
Thought it was east
Was actually north
Hearth with family
How it used to be
Where did these days go
Feel as TRU NORTH wings
Fly out at dusk
Where’s the artwork
Once on these walls
As if set abroad
Off an old flame?
