    High quality plastic box containing the album on a strip of tape somehow. Kind of an off-white yellowish color. Goes well with Casey Mckenna's photography, featured on the cover. Very pretty overall. Got 50 or so of em

lyrics

oh constant death-
are you alive in me?
are you trying to see over my head?
and in my chest-
is it my air you breathe?
is it my lungs you squeeze to leave me dry and dumb?

to all the oceans there unfolding
you spend me sprawling out and holding
torn up treasure maps-
their holy light spots on the floor
but every compass held is faulty
and every magnet lies down buried
under dinosaurs and legends at the bottom of the earth
there is no hell

there's rising pine trees and stone walls splitting sight lines
pink of sky and snowy sunlight
it's everything that i exist by
nervous shaking and chronic pain
of bony skin in cabin laid
a mind at work against a body

o constant death!
you are alive in me!
you are moving my feet up ahead!
to the next
thing i'll fear today,
for all it's beauty and pain!
i watch you cradle up the sun and fall asleep!
