Armor
02:07

I broke my armor earlier today
and was forced to take a dangerous way
on a trail I know I have never seen before
and found myself disfigured
at your front door
Don't leave me here covered in dust
Brush me off and pin a lotus petal to my bust
I've never seen anything right
about the reasons we decide to fight

Your Touch

Give me the tangles in your hair
give me your whistlin on the air
give me the day you got real scared
you came running to my arms
said "Honey Bear"
Give me the color of your blush
give me the closeness of your touch
give me the day we got so rushed
and you said "I just love you
way too much"
Give me the whispers in my ear
give me the way I'd pull you near
give me the silence of our fears
and how our hearts rang out
so loud and clear
Give me the way you scratched my back
give me the softness of your lap
Give me the locket with no clasp
It's so sad I'll never have you back
to hold your hand
and kiss your neck
again

The Songs We Wrote
01:00
|
|||
|
O, now we'll forget the songs we wrote
and brave the winter as we molt
The wind is our home and we all know
what we can learn before we rot
And gently we rock and warm our hands
in pastures gracefully 'til dawn
In my homeland
you never have to clap your hands
you never have to be my friend
if you never wanna see the end
of me

Old Woman Fall
00:48
|
|||
|
Old Man Winter
leaves an awful bite
and Old Man Summer
makes me scream and fight
but Old Woman Fall
makes me feel alright
cuz the leaves are honest
when they die

Dangerous Tangle
01:47
|
|||
|
When you feel it I wanna hear you scream
You just been blowing out locusts
and toking on my smoke machine
When you want it I wanna feel your need
you're just a fading angel
been lost in the bogus ravine
Why do animals breed
right where they go to sleep?
And I'm still wondering
what it means to love so free
when love has been
both an angel
and a dangerous tangle
to me

Birthday
03:30
|

|
She lives in this house over there,
has her world outside it.
Grapples with the earth with her fingers
and her mouth, she's five years old.
Thread worms on a string,
keeps spiders in her pocket,
collects fly-wings in a jar
scrubs horse flies and pinches them on a line.
She's got one friend
he lives next door, they listen to the weather,
he knows how many freckles
she's got,
She scratches his beard.
She's painting huge books, glues them together,
They saw a big raven; it glided down the sky, she touched it.
Today is her birthday, they're smoking cigars,
he's got a chain of flowers,
Sews a bird in her knickers,
they're smoking cigars, lie in the bathtub, chain of flowers.
