Elegy
by Leslie Jordan

Album: Elegy - Single


This wooden box in my hands
Is hard to hold and understand
Through black horse night, I recognize
The name on the side

Two boys, two worlds upon our backs
Under the weight of what we lacked
You can't mistake
The bough, it breaks
The ties that bind us

Ten thousand things fill up my mind
Ten thousand words I didn't write
Ten thousand ways to say goodbye
So why can't I think of one

It's been a year since time stood still
Point to the past, look to the hills
Regret reveals, the way it feels
Like rain unending

Ten thousand things fill up my mind
Ten thousand words I didn't write
Ten thousand ways to say goodbye
So why can't I think of one

Bridge:
Handwritten letters on the page
the shell of doubt, this life we made
Accept the news I hesitate, holding out for words

Ten thousand things fill up my mind
Ten thousand words I didn't write
Ten thousand ways to say goodbye
So why can't I'

Make peace with all the 'should have been's?
Lay down the means to find the ends
Upon the hill, two boys stand still
Stare at the clear night sky
