What's that you said? I wasn't listening |
|
How long have we been talking? |
|
I didn't see the clock when I came in |
|
The storm stayed out in the valley |
|
Think of all the rain that we been missing |
|
You might say anything to anyone, but you still jump back |
|
At the black cat hissing |
|
Why you gonna raise your hand to make the pickup |
|
When you're gonna get sent down alone |
|
I turned away to keep from asking cuz I know you want to find a home |
|
Why you gonna raise your hand to make the pickup |
|
When you're gonna get sent down alone? |
|
Searching in the night |
|
Couldn't read the signs at all |
|
Houses and windows, pale grey circles under the eyes inside |
|
No keys, no chains, waiting in the kitchen all night long |
|
No need to hide, mores the fool too full to fall |
|
Reverse the shade, fill your pockets up with hair and teeth and straw |
|
Won't be moving on |
|
If I ever heard any word |
|
That didn't sound like the thrashing of the wing of a bird |
|
Could you keep it quiet? |
|
You have to do your best |
|
Not to make yourself confess |
|
When you feel like a naked fool over all the things |
|
You couldn't pull |
|
Why you gonna raise your hand to make the pickup |
|
When you're gonna get sent down alone? |
