Bankrupt! from Bankrupt! / Mending by The Remnants Window
I started working on this song while living in Alaska, a few years ago. it started as a meditative prayer, but as the song continued to unfold It demanded more of my story. its a lament, its a rallying cry.

Lyrics
bankrupt
out of my mind
i can hear the calling
reaching out, to the scraps of light
leaking under the door
how long
will I be
lighting candles
for you
for me
crimson eye
ideations
where are you my, my supply
i’m trying to remember
all the good that I know
bury those empty plates…Watermelon wedges
swallowed up
the open drawer
i look to
my birch trees
buckling down
underneath
winters grasp
but I see them in spring
rise again
i wanna see, i wanna feel like they do
oh lord
may I rise, to face my arrows
reforge me, from the splinters
in the night, I cry upon the door
sing over me, and declare the dawn
how long will I be
lighting candles
for you
for me
