Jasper

Aidan Knight

Came up to the water
Put my feet into it
Bathed my heels in Jasper
Felt the sand give an inch

All the people bathing
Our teeth became connected
Smiling while we waded
Into the shallowness

Take me down
To the water
Fill you up
With the deepest of sorrows
That's my man, That's my brother
Shone a light on my own

Oh, and I was frightened
When you put your face in
The mouth of the canyon
The murky water's tide
And what a relief to see
All your sins absolved
Without a washing cloth
Just the stillness of the night

Take me down
To the water
Fill you up
With the deepest of sorrows
That's my man, That's my brother
Shone a light on my own
Shone a light on my own
Shone a light on my own
Shone a light on my own

Oh, and I was frightened
When you put your face in
The mouth of the canyon
The murky water's tide
And what a relief to see
All your sins absolved
Without a washing cloth
Just the stillness of the night

Take me down
To the water
Fill you up
With the deepest of sorrows
That's my man, That's my brother
Shone a light on my own
Shone a light on my own
Shone a light on my own
Shone a light on my own
