about

Written for friend Bill Dine, who has long suffered an odd, erratic relationship with elemental things like fire and light...

lyrics

WILLIAM P. DINE AS A YOUNG MAN LIKED TO TURN ON HIS SPACE HEATER
ONCE IN DECEMBER, TURNED IT ON FULL BLAST
AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS IN THE BUILDING/ALL THE LIGHTS UPTOWN & DOWNTOWN
EVERY LAST LIGHT IN THE WORLD

ALL THE LIGHTS WENT OUT
ALL THE STARS WENT OUT

THAT IS WHAT I REALLY CALL NIGHT
I'M TAKEN ABACK BY THE TOTAL BLACK
THAT IS WHAT I REALLY CALL NIGHT
THE SUNRISE? NOTHING BUT LIES
IT WAS REALLY NIGHT

ALL THE LIGHTS WENT OUT
ALL THE STARS WENT OUT

THAT IS WHAT I REALLY CALL NIGHT
COYOTES BARK IN THE TOTAL DARK
THAT IS WHAT I REALLY CALL NIGHT
A BIG SURPRISE FOR MY USELESS EYES
IT WAS REALLY NIGHT

WILLIAM P DINE WHEN HE GOT OLDER
ONE SUMMER NIGHT TOOK A WALK IN A CLIMAX FOREST /IN HIGH SUMMER
SOON EVERY LIGHT IN THE UNIVERSE/EVERY LIGHT UPTOWN & DOWNTOWN
EVERY LAST LIGHT IN THE WORLD

THAT IS WHAT I REALLY CALL NIGHT
I'M TAKEN ABACK BY THE TOTAL BLACK
THAT IS WHAT I REALLY CALL NIGHT
THE SUNRISE? NOTHING BUT LIES
IT WAS REALLY NIGHT

"No one writes like Moore: setting scenes using peculiar lyrical details, tying slipknots in the human timeline; history intertwines with the present, bringing death to life. All that comes into play on Graveyards, Wind, & War." ___ Kevin Curtin, Austin Chronicle ... more
