the heavier

from the lowering night by dana falconberry

lyrics

you threw a rock across the rio grande
i watched the weight of it leave your hand
i saw the sun set heavy and low
landing with your rock in mexico

and in the autumn came a cold breeze
i saw your face fall quick as the leaves
i stood alone in the hallway
to wait for you to figure out something to say

doesn't it get heavier

now the pines are all covered in snow
sloped-shouldered they hang their heads low
i could have waited straight into the spring
to watch those pines shed everything

you're always quiet in the evening light
i watch the weight of it sink into the night
if it were you in the hallway
you know i would have figured out something to say

doesn't it get heavier
