i think i'll go home andG1 mull thisEm1 over
before i D1cram it A1down my G1 throat
at long last it's crashed, the cG1olossalEm1 mass
has broken D1up into A1bits in my G1 moat.
Em2lift the mattress Em2off the floor
Em2walk the cramps off
go meander in the cold
Em2hail to your dark skin
Em2hiding the fact you're dead again
Em2underneath the powerliness seeking shade
far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason
it's a luscious mix ofG1 words andEm1 tricks
that let us D1bet when you A1know we should G1 fold
on rocks i dreamt ofG1 where we'dEm1 stepped
and of the D1whole mess of A1roads we're now G1 on.
Em2hold your glass up, Em2hold it in
Em2never betray the way you've always known it is.
Em2one day i'll be wondering Em2how
i got so old just wondering Em2how
i never got cold wearing nothing in the snow.
this is way beyond my remote concern
of being condescending
all G1these D1squawA1king birds G1won't D1quit.
builG1ding D1no-A1thing, lay-G1ing D1bricks.
