Our father at the table. His hands in his lap. My brother three hours cold. I said his name. The morning did the rest. I was the one who told them who he was [Instrumental] This song is part of a project called “The Evidence Field.” You can find the playlist here: https://suno.com/playlist/d1ec31a7-8155-4592-82f0-3e108271f63a
