Lyrics

The heat it hangs like death and clothes
It's on my back and in my nose
Reminds me when we used to sleep
With open eyes on top of sheets
And August rolls with roaring clouds
That come to meet me in my house
With rain that pecks upon my cheek
Then pours til I can barely speak
My shoulders hang like skin an bones
And point ahead like traffic cones
And scream with every step I take
I dream with every step I take
Of June and March and frozen trees
That shake and stir with twisted knees
The sun is high, it's taunting me
It's taunting me, it's taunting me
The pavement pulses in my toes
And pulls me in the undertow
Through heavy nights and shallow sleep
To water's edge that I can't see
And August cuts with slanted steel
What's cauterized but cannot heal
The blade is sharp and pokes me through
The point is just a point of view
