Carrier Pigeon |
Looking back, back at his mother |
But she had vanished |
Yeah, she was gone |
Cast off amongst the shoppers |
Right where she vanished |
In aisles remote |
In a universe with room to grow: |
Try and find my way in the dark |
But we can’t even see who we are |
Drifting far from the harbor |
Without a paddle |
Without a prayer |
Crying in outdoor furniture |
Almost colliding |
With shopping carts |
When you’re ready, when you’re ready |
When you’re ready, when you’re ready |
In a bloated universe we’re lost |
Try and find my way in the dark |
Try and find the keys to my car |
And the world is tipping over |
The salt of the earth is blowing in the solar wind |
Reunited once again |
I love you son and I love you mother more |
My plates are expired |
I’m writing rubber checks in grocery stores |
I drove all night and my eyes are tired |
I bit my nails to the quick before I reached your door |
When I was seventeen I had a beatific vision |
That I flew away on the wings of a carrier pigeon |
Out of stagnant humidity |
Out of growing complacency |
From a brackish pond to a raging sea |
From a certainty to no guarantee |
I know you swam upstream for most of your life |
Dodging the grizzlies. |
My sister and I |
Thank you for all the sacrifices you made for us |
But it’s a different world than the one you knew |
And kids gotta do what they gotta do |
And maybe there were things that were shitty about the old world too |
Yeah, the old world (Yeah, the old world) |
Yeah, the old world too (Yeah, the old world too) |
Yeah, the old world too (Yeah, the old world too) |
And, the old world too (Yeah, the old world too) |
Yeah, the old world too (Yeah, the old world too) |
And, the old world too (Yeah, the old world too) |
Yeah, the old world (Yeah, the old world) |
Uh, uh, uh, uh |
