My girl left me on Tuesday
She tied a string around all the things
She’d decided to keep for a new day
While I was sleeping, while I was sleeping
My girl invented a sunrise
An open door, a chance to be born
She took one last look at my closed eyes
While I was thinking, while I was thinking
And since she could not give me time
She sealed my eyes with two thin dimes
My girl came down with the sickness
The river’s daughter cried out for water
She said “don’t you want to quit this”
While I was sinking, while I was sinking
My girl left me a warning:
“Sharpen your tune, make your peace with the moon
If you want to make it up to the morning”
While I was sleeping, while I was sleeping
And while the sun burned up in the air
And I closed my eyes, that moon was everywhere
That moon was everywhere [x3]

This album grows on me more and more with each listen. Bodner's approach to taking traditional music and reworking it and weaving it into his own personal narrative is amazing. On Into Grace, his own narrative is in the forefront. mad_wanderer
