You're Not Even Alive Lyrics - Jandek

Draw me a wise thin as blood 

And I watch it dance on a ballroom floor 

Send me peaches from afternoon 

I know horses that lie to be damned 

Baby I'm blessed with a putty knife 

Trying to find a window in the painted sand, oh 

It's my duty to find you happy today 

Just as I'm tearing your life away 

Caught around an avalanche 

Look at the snow discolored blanch 

I tried to lift you underneath an elm tree 

But you wanted to go back 

Painting all your treasures black
