What would you do If I turned out the light Gave the shadows to the moon We're all creatures here And I'm curious How the shapes change And I'll quit clinging to edges I'll fall into you August These are in the darkness Where will you go When you leave this tiny town Where the fruit litters the ground I have crossed a mountain pass beside you now Thrown my arms into an autumn wind I have I do not turn away from this easily August Do you remember me? How could I stay Cause it almost slips away too fast And grasses rise in the wild way The northern pines persist to call my name I will not return onto the north the same I swear all the dirt The rest of my days I will not forget the valley from which the darkness came
