Lyrics

In the evening, when there's a shift,
The light makes something new
From what was there all day,
And is it time to rest. or time to think?
Do I reach for the Moon like a turning snail;
Curl up like a greyhound, muzzle to tail;
Have I been too long in the water with my body of clay -
Easily leaking, seeping out
All over the place.
Dry out by the heater.
I burn gas like a waster;
Fumes are my history.
Heavy metals in the marrow,
Deep silt sorry I am.
Rats know our weakness.
Cracks in the structure.
Drawn to the warming
Water pipe, weatherboard,
Gnawing through the shell of our fear.
And there we are held in the plaster and clay,
Corrugated iron sings with the rain.
Moth finds my window when I'm up too late -
Haven't seen a ring tail up on the fence for a while.
Each night returns, is it pain or relief?
Can't find a reason to be active or sleep.
Crouching in the yard where the water won't drain,
I thought that I could hear earthworms making their way.
