Slipping down railings. And balconies. With a sleepy ease I never knew. I navigate my way to you. . Indigent darkness. Thick as a dream. A liquid party underneath.
Down in the willow garden. Where me and my love did meet. There we sat a courtin'. My love dropped off to sleep. I drank a bottle of burgundy wine. My love she did not know.
That filthy stare. He's on a tear. Cold water coming for the warm water junkies. I found a friend. . Lost him again. Poor sucker freaked, and couldn't swim with the monkeys.
Eyes in the back of your head. Ear to the ground. Love in the back of your mind. We're on a hill, stay very still. I would love a better drug. You lucky jerk.
If I walk down this hallway, tonight,. It's too quiet,. So I Pad through the dark. And call you on the phone. Push your old numbers. And let your house ring.
This is no time to fuck up. Scooting around the linoleum. On all fours, what for again?. Better yourself for somebody else. This is no time to wrestle.
You can't make it. You can't cry. You can't make it home tonight. It's too far to walk. To your goddamn van. It's too hard to come by your hand. . Drunk on nothing.
I lost a boy and now I look for him. Through every window. And behind every door. My son went down. . This isn't trauma. It's not even drama anymore. I was born with a sad song in my mouth.
This war's OK. In a sweet old fashioned way. Like a game we play. Guilty of something we forgot. I wasn't staring. I was just looking far away. . Dazzled by something I forgot.
Arrest the boy. Warm between the eyes. As he jackknifes into winter. Stung like a cutthroat trout in the cathedral heat. Sick as a dog, shaking like a leaf.
The best of us puking. The rest of us not doing so well. You can tell by the way. We look over your shoulder. Watching for the next big thing. Caffeine in the blood,.
(One, two). . I was standing. By the window. On a dark and cloudy day. When I saw the. Hearse come rolling. For to take my mother away. . Can the circle be unbroken.
Start with your fingers they finger the change. That carries you home in our evening. You're bee stung there.. Press your palm to your snow-coated thought cage.
Bless the beasts and the children,. For in this world they have no voice,. They have no choice.. Bless the beasts and the children,. For the world can never be,.
[Verse 1]. Watch winter melt away. Look for longer days. The sun comes out. Come up from under ground. . Wasting precious time on yesterdays. . But you've got time.
Home is where my head lays. On this pillow on your chest. Here is where my heart stays. Even when it's not the best. . And I can see all of the lights.
