Myths Come True - Mount Eerie
Composed by：Phil Elverum

Returning home Odysseus rides the ferry at night
I finally return to the end of our long road
There's been weather again and there's debris on the mud beneath tires
Clawed down by a sky unloading
And I see a cutting reflection of something I don't recognize through the dark trunks
I go out into it to look
Technology metal of an abandoned FedEx truck
Stuck in the mud where the stream overflows the ditch in storms like this
An empty omen left out in the rain
I walk back to the house with no headlamp
Just gravel and my animal brain
Here it is again
Returning to the warm house from the wet night
I left one round light on in the top room
Insistent blunt symbols recur throughout my life
A glow mythology
A cyclops walks across the sky
One window glowing in the forest
Is there a song on the wind?
I must have made myself this beacon
I must have known it would be like this
Belief slips in to my thinking
And I know nothing at all
Myths come true
