lyrics

Step up real close and smell the resin.
(But first put out your cigarette)
You did this in high school while I
Had numbers in my head

Your pine named Jeffrey
And mine ponderosa
Turpentine for me.

My lovers named for pines and castles
Could only show me sapwood
The heartwood too dark for me.

I guess I’m nomadic
The scorched earth behind me
I wish you had told me you wouldn’t follow me.

When I got to Lassen
I thought I was north enough
The scent of the bark betrayed me

But the butterscotch we loved
Is petrol
Known to cause explosions
if you set the heartwood on fire.

The lover named Jeffrey
The other with no name
The man with the metal heart and death on the brain

Everyone’s lying
They all think I’m buying it

But you played the long game
Loved me the wrong way
Like ayahuasca and magic

My lover from the desert, my castle!
Addicted to the resin
But the compound too volatile for you

What will you do now, alone?
Im inheriting the earth
As you’re stuck smelling pines on your own.
