lyrics

I see you, lone coyote
Looking for scraps in these bare suburban fields
Pencil-thin with silver eyes of empty
This spirit-hungry city at your heels

Grey ghost in the moonlight
Slipping in between the dust-worn sage
I close my eyes, you fade into the night
Talisman from a long-ago age

Won’t you take me
To the ridgeline
Where you sing your ancient song
And wash me in your water,
Wash me in your water
Until I belong

Vulture, take your offering
On the thermals riding high, come on down
No apology tucked in your dark wing
Silent as the blood run on the ground

Won’t you take me
To the cliff face
On the shoulder of your arid song
And wash me in your water, wash me in your water
Until I belong

I belong to the mountain, I belong to the sun
I see you, lone coyote, you belong to no one
I belong to the plains, I belong to the sea
When I cannot find my home, I am the lone coyote

Won’t you take me
To the shadows
Where your brothers found communion in a song
And wash me in your water, wash me in your water
Until I belong
