Hairshirt Fracture |
It’s a garbage truck hour, I’m sleeping in the shower |
I’m feeling like I’m waiting on a train |
By the sounds from my bed I think somebody’s bled |
All over something someone’s keeping clean |
I don’t need anything, just make it bright |
Then turn it low |
You don’t need more than me |
You could live right there beneath the stairs |
I’ve done it, I’ve said all I can, I’ve reached the end |
Now you must learn to bend |
Bend to the floor, taste the core |
You’re not going nowhere |
Leave the money right there |
I feel the arrow sticking in my ear |
We owe so much we pawned |
Now watch the power come undone |
I’m standing on my head to watch the day just drift away |
This city always makes the same mistakes, asleep or awake |
I’m sick of waking up inside white balloons |
Inside of blue balloons |
New York air is sweet tonight |
There’s no stars but that’s all right |
I’m breathing |
