Triple Spiral |
| I loved a triple spiral |
| My maiden-mother-crone |
| I folded my devotion into an origami rose |
| Stood at her Tiffany window |
| She said to look below |
| Could I see the town was burning? |
| Could I see the broken prison? |
| Could I see that it was time for me to go? |
| They looted the museum |
| Took all that they could hold |
| A motorcade of flatbed trucks |
| Made off with quite a haul |
| That’s when I heard someone shout |
| «In with the new, out with the old» |
| A dusty box of letters |
| A rusty suit of armor |
| A casket made of 14 karat gold |
| That’s the problem |
| No sense of time |
| She is shaped just like an hour glass |
| There laying on her side |
| I loved you triple spiral |
| Father, son, and ghost |
| But you left me in my darkest hour |
| When I needed you, when I needed you |
| And now the dream is over |
| I want it to be known |
| I never saw it coming |
| From my little human prism |
| How sad it is to know I’m in control |
| That’s the problem |
| An empty sky |
| I fill it up with everything |
| That’s missing from my life |
| Where’d you come from |
| You fated sign |
| Spinning through the centuries |
| Expanding all the time |
| Three worlds at one that blend together |
| Three times I cried for us |
| But I felt better then |
| I loved you triple spiral |
| My maiden-mother-crone |
| You found me in this fallow state |
| My mind was off and stoned |
| I heard your strange commotion |
| And wished I could go home |
| To live a little longer |
| A full Indian summer |
| Long enough to carve you into stone |
