|
a stormy summer |
|
is rolling closer |
|
lighting up this holy smoker |
|
and if this drinking |
|
could ease the thinking |
|
I toast to my home truth with this glass |
|
all rise you promises broken |
|
call my lovers by their names |
|
lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind |
|
which blows before the rain |
|
~~~~~~ |
|
little pin-pricks |
|
and how my ears bleed |
|
on the bomb ticks that is my heartbeat |
|
in every life-flash |
|
in every car crash |
|
I hear the silence waiting to fall |
|
all rise you promises broken |
|
call my lovers by their names |
|
lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind |
|
which blows before the rain |
|
~~~oh~~~ |
|
for all I carry |
|
are murdered secrets |
|
the price of my blue star-eyed weakness |
|
and so we travel |
|
and we unravel |
|
towards the place where all loose ends go |
|
all rise you promises broken |
|
call my lovers by their names |
|
lost hearts and words that are spoken to the wind |
|
which blows before the rain... |
