(Well |
|
sometimes |
|
I think that you |
|
meet someone |
|
you |
|
give and you give |
|
and you give until there's nothing left |
|
no matter what |
|
it's never |
|
ever going to be good enough for them) |
|
Drove up to the river with the barrel in the back of the trunk, |
|
the grilled cheese that Karen ??? hung out in front. |
|
Mr. Moon and Johnny Cash swear I'm leaving at once, |
|
punched the gas the leaves all laugh, |
|
the wind wheezes and coughs. |
|
The water wash sprays off, pinpricked my lips. |
|
Wet wood framed moonlight, barely barrel of slits. |
|
Came too far to watch it drift off now I can, |
|
let my ship slide along right off that cliff, |
|
right off the cliff, |
|
right off the cliff. |
|
Could have set you to rest, |
|
I could have told you that I loved you to death. |
|
Make a million memories, you talk in wasted breath. |
|
Wave my hat and beat my chest while listening 'til it hits, |
|
you love the mess, I'll give you one that you never forget. |
|
A man of letters knows the best of broken needs and frayed respects, |
|
the promise catch a cloud of breath and foggy humid scent |
|
Hands that get and hands that beg and hands that always forget, |
|
count on tips but never ever can you count on the catch. |
|
Count on the catch, |
|
count on the catch. |
|
My little ship drifts with the leaves and water spraying across the lips, |
|
Mr. Moon's good work blue earthmen kissed, |
|
two ships soft hiss in the sparkling mist, |
|
that old lift in your falling chest just before the hit. |
|
I never thought it'd come to this my parents never taught me to drift, |
|
something I learned watching bridges burn down to sticks, |
|
there's nothing left but a mess of splinters flailing limbs, |
|
the water sounds just like the record's end. |
|
Just like the record's end. |
|
Just like the record's end. |
|
There's no big bang there's no big mess, |
|
there's no big parade no big cheques. |
|
There's no big bang there's no big mess, |
|
there's no big parade no big cheques. |
|
There's no big bang there's no big mess, |
|
there's no big parade no big cheques. |
|
There's no big bang there's no big mess, |
|
there's no big parade no big cheques. |
|
There's no big bang there's no big mess, |
|
there's no big parade no big cheques. |
|
There's no big bang there's no big mess, |
|
there's no big parade no big cheques. |
|
There's no big bang there's no big mess, |
|
there's no big bang there's no big mess, |
|
there's no big bang there's no big mess, |
|
there's no big bang there's no big mess, |
|
there's no big bang there's no... |
