A sliver of across the blue Lord knows I don't know the hell's the use of the midday moon You came to my arms too goddamn Lord knows I know what to do with you and the midday moon
This is to say taken everything away Every we made fit into six trucks drawing dust above the driveway
The muddy cavalcade came at past eight everything in that grassy bank And trace of you was taken too And what was once a is just a hollow room
It was a day That kind that makes me L.A. 'Cause God them a perfect sun And they think and smog were hardly a fair trade
don't breathe or flinch Or even blink at how the will shift the wind parades across the meager ridge And kicks the weeds a bit to make seem as if the lea is a sea of
They say you can't cheat it's just a shortness of breath Or no pains in chest A we agree that we ain't cured yet
Forgive me I thought that we'd end up here From ["sweet dreams"] whispered in ear Before a long sleep so cold and clear
A sliver of across the blue Lord I don't know what the hell's the use of the midday moon You came to my arms too goddamn Lord knows I don't what to do with you and the midday moon
I've been told that when we die we pass onto the side there's no bright light, no light. Death is just a pasture gate opens by lifting a plank To just more life, just more
I met an old man, sun-tanned, by Jesus And the light that through stain glassed pieces He clutched a flat to his chest And confessed he wasn't ready for
I seen an eyed firefly, femme fatale Too vain to explain how her fell out Lusting for the thing to erase her shame She doesn't want to forever, but she's scared to fade away
This is how came to me, one at a time to my building on the cemetery ground All they wanted was an answer and I could never let 'em I couldn't promise forever but I could buy a lot of time
You Jeanvieve, you the straw Whispering your wishes in cotton I wonder if the Maker felt he botched the flock But never had the mettle to make the world Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop,
[I wonder if the maker ever felt he botched the flockBut never had the mettle to make the world Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop,
[I wonder if the maker ever felt he botched the flockBut never had the to make the world stop] Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop,
A sliver of chalk the blue Lord I don't know what the hell's the use of the midday moon You came to my too goddamn soon Lord knows I don't know to do with you and the midday moon
A sliver of chalk the blue Lord knows I don't what the hell's the use of the midday moon You came to my arms too goddamn Lord I don't know what to do with you and the midday moon
