Harriet |
| Through the hem of evening |
| Into the flesh of the night |
| You step out to receive them |
| In the bruising light |
| You leave your bed of novels |
| You leave your hovering crown |
| You leave your wit and your mettle |
| And you come down |
| But it’s only a minute then |
| Til the hole in the canvas spreads |
| And it grows til there’s nothing left |
| So if you even remember |
| Me after all that will come |
| Think of all i intended |
| Not what i’ve done |
| See me like an arrow |
| Still upon the bow |
| Set to the heart of the target |
| Hanging bright above |
| But it’s only a minute then |
| Til the shot is released and sent |
| And lost to the shifting wind |
| Oh they don’t know you, not like i do, not like us, harriet |
| But they would love you, just like i do, if they could, harriet |
| Cause what you are, and what you want, are so far apart, and they’re travelling |
| on |
| Oh what you are is staggering drunk, but i’ll pick you up and i’ll carry you off |
| Oh they don’t know you, not like i know you, not like us, harriet |
| But they would love you, just like i love you, if they could, harriet |
