Foggy Lilac Windows
The holes of highway bones are filled But the tolls of highway loans are billed To the board of directors of boredom, here
So I slept outside the worried exit And hurried to avoid the decrepit Hordes of fallen Lords, I can't afford'em, dear
But overwhelmed is a laughing word To say you've taken for granted stillness On an ever-moving planet
Was the glacier's falling heard Was the crumbling porch's utter realness Made of ash or made of granite?
Oh, I'm so longing for my mama's kiss And scratching my old lifetime's back That simpleminded tenderness Is a pity that my searches lack
The graveyard breathes reality But reality's blurred outside my gate No matter if I hesitate The foggy lilac windows come And dumb my number one ambition And it's too much repetition
The south was knee-deep in the weeds And I was in a plank-wood parlor Every flame from every mouth was only worth a dime
Feeling easier to move than shifting reeds I was wearing my times on my collar Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com But my colors don't get bright in season's time
Your biggest grid did shrink and sink In one night's walk of blindness To foreign sites where bright lights find you out
When evolution is extinct And lurking is a fossil's kindness And there's no one left under our sun to sign you out
And the piano strings are damp and deep And the honky-tonk is breaking free And the second-grader that you keep Beneath your skin is next to me
Ah, who likes, who plays these games And who is clutching to the reins 'Cause I scurried open plains And the foggy lilac windows come And dumb my number one ambition And it's too much competition
And that bleached canal was rare And Ma was there And no one dared to care (about tomorrow) The road is bare I go nowhere And all the joy that I'm aware (is food for sorrow) The loft upstairs is unprepared The billboard fields are stoned in pairs The gravel layers and river dares And the air is very weary
