Ontario

Ontario is carrying me home
Right for the snow
All dark underneath oh
See how the trees
Make excuses for me
And the baseball field
Will not yield
Till the winter sleep

And I'm mostly medicine now
Please
I wanna feel this around me
The 4 am sky keeps me alive
I'll love the arrogant cold
I'm off balance but
I feel my soul

Ontario
Old sparrow
I'm burying me here
Now I know
The winters for me dear

Wood sided houses
Here reawaken my bones
And I see now
I've had a break in my soul

I'm mostly medicine these days
Swimming the sea of deep haze
Now I am free here in the tree

God bless benevolent cold
I'm off balance
But I feel my soul
Ontario
