== Lyrics ==
 
 come settle me my pilgrim i'm unsettled and i'm unfulfilled
 i swear it where merits prevail i've failed
 come careful wear frailties with shell or scales
 
 come constantly occurring blurry i'll be sure to sight
 were i to see a shade i'll raise and surely dowse the blinds
 then unlace my eyes
 while we kiss riddle me this for i'm unsure what it is
 
 my first is foremost legally
 my second circles outwardly
 my third leads all in victory
 my fourth twice ends a nominee
 
 my first is foremost legally
 my second circles outwardly
 my third leads all in victory
 my fourth twice ends a nominee
 
 come settle me my pilgrim i'm unsettled and i'm unfulfilled

== Songwriter Notes ==

i wrote this riff a while ago, figured tonight was the right time to knock it out. i picked a beat that sounded ok, and slowed it down to half tempo, then recorded a couple tracks of the main riff followed by some punctuated guitar chords. for the words i did some free writing before settling on the first line "come settle me my pilgrim". i was scanning my bookshelf and saw the book pilgrim at tinker creek, one of my favorites. the chords on the bridge section are pretty random i think. they are G major, C major, Bflat minor, A major. the words there are a riddle i found on the internet, the answer is L-O-V-E.
