Doves
[Verse 1: Benjamin Booker]
Seasons drain
Time, it breaks out of me
Call it age
Call it time, love, I'll call it me

[Chorus: Benjamin Booker]
I was only a dove
Only in love
Only in love
I was only a dove
Only in love
Only in love

[Verse 2: Benjamin Booker]
Pardon me
People are spilling out
Rush ahead
I keep on holding out

[Chorus: Benjamin Booker]
I was only a dove
Only in love
Only in love
I was only a dove
Only in love
Only in
[Verse 3: billy woods]
It's cold again
Outside something howls inside the wind
My stockpile pile high
Every burner on the stove glowing red
Save Yourself friend (Save yourself)
That's the best I can givе, save yourself
It's lettеrs I never sent
Jumbles of yesterday's packed on pages like storage spaces and basements
They called like "Come now, he doesn't have long to live" (You should probably hurry)
I dress slowly
Came back that night and took my baby out the crib so I could hold him
I know it can slip away slow, yo, you can lose it all in a moment
Stirring the soup 'round in the roux, couple things roasting
Crack a window open let the cold in, again
The trees re-threaded gold, the sign said "Repent"
I had to let it all go so I could live in my head, again
Ransacking my mind but something hiding in the vents, ductwork, or worse
Something died in the walls like a church
Locked doors never had a key but you test the handle occasionally
God forbid it swing open
Attic stairs broken, don't go up there (Don't!)
From the windows I watch the diggers disappear in soft wet earth
Dinner served, I waited for my guests, long table set

[Verse 4: E L U C I D]
Someone here tonight
Won't hear that trumpet
What a privilege
What a joy
They sit among us
Someone here tonight
Won't feel death's sting
What a privilege
Someone here tonight
Won't hear that trumpet
They won't even want to sleep
What a joy
[Outro: E L U C I D]
Great day
Great day
Great day
Great day
Is it me?
Daddy, you're so silly
Is it me?
Daddy, you're so silly
Is it me?
Great day
Great day
Great day
