lyrics

we buried you so sweetly 'neath the yard
by the fruit tree near the garden wall
and there the dirt will take you to a place
where you'll never be left in the dark

when you ran away you were so graying
you ached in all your joints but never cried
and though we loved you, open fields held more
there you ran on with the foxes
you were more alive than ever

a sense of belonging
a cry from the deep
and the feel of the water
and dirt under feet
and the rushing of wind
through the trees
oh you loved it there!

What if I had never felt the sting
of nettle on my legs and hands and feet
would I know the feeling of relief
cooling in the water of the creek

what if I had never felt the cold
of winter's chill that pierced me to the bone
would I ever understand the warmth
of spring time rolling quickly by
and giving life to all that died

a sense of belonging
a cry from the deep
and the feel of the water
and dirt under feet
and the rushing of wind
through the trees
oh I loved it there!

a sense of a calling
a sigh of relief
and the feel of the water
and earth under feet
and the light of the stars
in the night
oh I love it here!

about

L'anarchiste Salt Lake City, Utah

"The music of Salt Lake City's L'anarchiste gives us these sensations that could be read as awakenings - making us understand what it means to be here now. It's about the stream that we have forgotten we can hear rushing from our backyard. When attention is paid to it, its volume cuts to us like the healthy call of a locomotive searing through a crossing." -Sean Moeller, Daytrotter ... more
