Margery Dreams Of Horses |
| In the still water she lies down |
| Shaking in the press of sunlight |
| We rolled into Lexington |
| She shakes off the drop of daylight |
| Water beading up her chest |
| Bleeding down between her knees |
| Rivers in Kentucky flow |
| Between the bluegrass wavy seas |
| But oh, Margery |
| Twists the knife once more inside of me Breathless with anticipation |
| Baited breathers set their hooks |
| Tuck their heads beneath the high grass |
| And lie and wait beside the brooks |
| For instance? |
| pushing slowly through |
| Frustration leading back along |
| The alleys of a childhood |
| Will not release us willingly |
| But oh, Margery |
| Sticks the knife in while I coundn’t the sea |
| Dust me off and shut me down |
| And dream of where I haven’t been |
| Close the door inside my heart |
| Stuck in the south Atlantic wind |
| I have hollow eyes |
| Haunting only to myself |
| Even so, I can’t stop calling |
| This great big hollows in my self |
| I took the train form California |
| To the far side of the continent |
| Woke up in Kentucky |
| Where a wedding was about to end |
| I looked up at Anna |
| She turned back to look at me It’s best to kill the ones that matter |
| Render blind the ones who see |
| But oh, Margery |
| Takes the blade and walks away from me Oh, Margery |
| Love like blood is pouring out of me Oh, Margery |
| My heart won’t stop bleeding over me baby |
| Oh, I can’t shut it in It’s got far too many doors to block the wind |
| Oh, I can’t shut it in It’s got far too many doors to block the wind |
