half an hour, give or take
entering the loving state
in some other way
given time, I can find
something good within the mind
of another kind
open eyes often say something good about the day
have a nice day
heard you say something new
sounded harsh and sounded blue
didn't sound like you
didn't you tell me to
start the thing and see it through
it must've been you
open eyes often say something good about the day
have a nice day
let me stay for a while
right here in bed
my mind is away
outside my head
a dream I was having
had you too
my mind went away
to go find you
let me stay for a while
right here in bed
my mind is awake
outside my head
no dream does compare
to what it's like
to lay like a child
in the mornings light
beside you, with time to not move

once picked up the phone
a voice I didn't know
I have something to show
say everything you know
i'll tell you what I know
cause everything I know
I know for sure

the healthiest boy
05:20
|
|||
water will seep wherever
and you have to soak it up
my job is done
when I rise
to pissing's purpose
but nevermind
there isn't time
to fix it today
nevermind
there isn't time
to fix it today
well you oughta make time
lemme just say
I'm the healthiest boy
sick as I am
I will only be sick
for a while

snowflakes for breakfast
03:29
|
|||
don't eat those snowflakes for breakfast
I made them special for you
out of rice paper and glue
and the glitter that I used
has got a little bit of blue
and that's not good for you
so eat this that I made you for breakfast
chickens laid the eggs and pigs had to die
seems no matter what I make for you
something must depart from the earth
where is it they go?

Good God!
06:04
|
|||
now that you're back home
I'm not gonna let you go outside again
unknown home that I was torn from
I've loved you since we were born
unknown soul I have returned to
felt loves light in the moment I saw you
something outside my control
threatens my lover
good God! good Lord!
please help us Lord
you've been gone very long now
but we still wait for you somehow

swells
09:11
|
|||
oh, what a thing
giant gate on my fingernail
and the pain as it
swells
oh, then again
with the knife
to the next one
to the left of index
oh, in the night
open door with the light inside
and that stove burns alright
that would be three
so if I were me I'd be afraid
I will soon lose this hand

love minus zero/no limit
03:12
|
|||
my love she speaks like silence
without ideals or violence
she doesn't have to say she's faithful
yet she's true, like ice, like fire
people carry roses
and make promises by the hour
my love she laughs like the flowers
valentines can't buy her
in the dime store and bus stations
people talk of situations
read books, repeat quotations
draw conclusions on the wall
some speak of the future
my love she speaks softly
she knows there's no success like failure
and that failure's no success at all
the cloak and dagger dangles
madams light the candles
in ceremonies of the horsemen
even the pawn must hold a grudge
statues made of matchsticks
crumble into one another
my love winks, she does not bother
she knows too much to argue or to judge
the bridge at midnight trembles
the country doctor rambles
bankers nieces seek perfection
expecting all the gifts that wise men bring
the wind howls like a hammer
the night blows cold and rainy
my love she's like some raven
at my window with a broken wing
