20061017 - Clemency Crane

from The Song Diary I by Paleo

lyrics

CLEMENCY CRANE


And when clemency's cranes have all been towed away,
shoot your mouth like a horse to have something to say.


We're not singing along to your musical beds,
when the bottle you spin she broke over your head.


Like the biggest explosion my world's ever known,
I make art just like love tips the seat of your soul.


Like seashells that cover the songs of the sea,
there are pieces to you. There are pieces to me.


The cold draws a curtain of birds over the sky,
flying south to my thickets of words to the wise.
There's a garden of graves on the hood of the van,
are these people I've loved in a previous life?


If your heart, heart is not in it.
If your heart, heart is not in it.
If your heart, heart is not in it.


Let it go.
