Dry the River piosenki

Our dialogue ended before I intended, I had to let go, But I hope you're well, I see you around the neighbourhood, it's just so hard to know, Such overexacting and delicate acting, I never know why, Is it peace of mind, Maybe all that I need, is that...

At the bottom of our rotten boat there is a lake. Things with many limbs are creeping round my teenaged legs. Late October, old wives' summer, I'm all arms and legs. Spread out like an adolescent on my shallow bed. So, with animal skins around us, we go...

'Lo and behold your mother is drinking again This might be the coldest winter since records began You were alone and steady with wintry calm Leading the children softly across the fold Each morning you march your sisters like soldiers to school 'Cause lo...

You are the string in my bow. Biblical Mary to Joe. The North isn't True 'til it's leading me to you. You are the way that I know. Under the weight of belief you shiver and shake like a leaf. But death is a force, not a man on a horse: I'll keep you sa...

I was lying on the floor of the playground You were chasing off a kid with a greyhound I remember thinking you're the coolest girl I know You were swinging from the seating rafters It fell around you in a halo of plaster I don't go to hospitals, I let yo...

It started with the moon That turned an inexpensive room into St. Peters. There’s a parabolic story, but it’s boring And it ends how you’d expect. Forever dressing down I’m like a stranger Hanging round outside the kingdom hall. I’d ‘ve carried your we...

I had a vision in the chapel Flame flickered on your forehead like an apple. When the morning came, I was enthralled by your movement. But I was scared, I wrote a letter to articulate my thoughts a little better. When the time came for speaking my mind...

Like faithful oxen through the chalk, With dragging tails of history walk. Soon confuse the compass and the cross. Carefully and cursively we fill our travelling diaries with loss. Beneath an angry Bible flood, Did you and I first learn to love. In my fathe...

So the priceless blue diamond is cursed, and we both got hurt. Maybe I stand in a minefield of words, but I asked you first. Those early encounters, with the hurtful lies of kids. I remember what you did Covered your arms in a curtain-shawl, bloodi...

I dreamt of a Russian doll bride Who spawn on the points of the feet like a child But I had the terminal pride of an older man As it passed over a cross on a post But the angle decends in the shape of a crow And buries its beak in our unfused bones like i...

Night descended like a blanket, on the house Where I miss you like a limb. I close the curtain shun the working and I put your record on. I the lonely tax collector never had Such a feeling before you came. You descended I amended, And I need it like a...

It's crazy how I feel Living without you Inside this house that we built. It feels like the window's Finally open Letting the memories out. Go on and love her, Love her forever I will not tell her I told you too You'll never know dear How much I lo...

They're cutting up the bodies In the med school basement And I am only watching On an academic placement I regulate my breathing But I can't escape the feeling That I should not be watching today Earlier on the stairwell I couldn't hear your speaking...

I waited by your bedside, And didn't close my eyes all night. I named you like a prayer. It's anybody's guess how, The angel of doubt came down, And crept into your bed. But after we danced to the shipping forecast, The words escaped your mouth: "I k...

I used to be a king alone Like Solomon or Rehoboam And in this, a corvée day Did jealous keep my picture frames And everything did oxidate in place. But then it came a single sound With astro nights and calcite And algebra and symmetry And none of thi...

It was a four letter word It's the simplest of rituals to observe You keep on driving until something breaks 'Til I find you in the dark Hot and heavy in the floodlights of a park You're a gold star fallen from its natural plane I hit him in the head wi...

There were eyes on us, Parents advising us, ohh, we pretended not to hear, Take your time on us, Rippen the vine of our soul, But you'd whisper in my ear, In the sea of love there ain't no tide, In the clutching fist of time will survive, My light neve...

My family on the right hand side And your family on the left We got married in a single bed We sang shaker hymns When your warhorse grandfather had sung The whole damn song of solomon We toasted health in the front room We whiled away the afternoon M...

I’m burning like an effigy in here: The summer’s come to haunt me. And I know I’m not the sacrificial deer, But I wish you could’ve warned me Of the Phrygian Lion, With his excellent eyesight, At the gate of our love. I understood the chemistry of peace; You...

Two young hearts will meet in the middle, and a light will flicker on Where there once was none? Where does love come from? The bodies in the firmament are spinning like a plate: I was lost in the fission before you came. I could write this down, I...
