Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's not the energy reeling
Nor the lines in your face
Nor the clouds on the ceiling
Nor the clouds in space
[Verse 2]
It's not the phone on the table
Nor the bed in the earth
Nor the bed in the stable
Nor your stable words
[Verse 3]
It's not the formless being
Nor the cry in the air
Nor the boy I'm seeing
With her long black hair
[Verse 4]
It's not the open weaving
Nor the furnace glow
Nor the blood of your bleeding
As you try to let go
[Chorus]
It's not the room
Not beginning
Not the crowd
Not winning
Not the planet
Not spinning
Not a rouse
Not heat
Not the fire lapping up the creek
Not food
Not to eat
[Verse 5]
Not the meat of your thigh
Nor your spine tattoo
Nor your shimmery eye
Nor the wet of the dew
[Verse 6]
It's not the warm illusion
Nor the crack in the plate
Nor the breath of confusion
Nor the starkness of slate
[Chorus]
It's not the room
Not beginning
Not the crowd
Not winning
Not the planet
Not spinning
Not a rouse
Not heat
Not the fire lapping up the creek
Not food
Not to eat
[Verse 7]
Not what you really wanted
Nor the mess in your purse
Nor the bed that is haunted
With the blanket of thirst
It's not the hunger revealing
Nor the ricochet in the cave
Nor the hand that is healing
Nor the nameless grave
[Chorus]
It's not the room
Not beginning
Not the crowd
Not winning
Not the planet
Not spinning
Not a rouse
Not heat
Not the fire lapping up the creek
Not food
Not to eat
[Chorus]
Not to die
Not dying
Not to laugh
Not lying
Not the vacant wilderness vying
[Chorus]
It's not the room
Not beginning
Not the crowd
Not winning
Not the planet
Not spinning
