Cedar Smoke
Drift
Wood burning somewhere nearby. Smoky textures, whispered vocals, the scent of a fire you're not tending but grateful for. Music for wool sweaters and windows left open to the cold.
Lyrics
The cabin holds its breath at dusk
Cedar splitting on the fire
Smoke curls out like a question
That doesn't need an answer
Let it rise let it rise
There's nothing left to burn tonight
Just the glow behind your eyelids
And the quiet getting right
Your hands still smell like resin
From the wood you stacked this morning
The blanket's sliding off your shoulder
But you're too warm to fix it
Let it rise let it rise
There's nothing left to burn tonight
Just the glow behind your eyelids
And the quiet getting right
Cedar knows how to let go
Gives its whole self to the air
