Lyrics

My perfect house is mainly door
And today I am full of walking
Old chalk leaving sidewalk stroke by stroke
Just as it was laid down
Add momentum to me, to the thought of me
Even more a mountain will rise and the rain will come
When it is dark and quiet time
My walking turns into sleeping
For hours past the creepy city lights
If you would just adjust, I would just
When my skin bursts and burns with significance
Maybe then there will be some rest when the dark is out
I put basil and mint into a jar and I left it there
Walking at last to get somewhere
Weeping into the creases of the Sunday paper
Look alive, very sick, I do
I look alive and I do
I look alive, very sick, and I do
Is it good because it's alive?
Now I never blink
Your face is a frame of mine
Hung on the spaces we would live for a while
You in mine, in mine in yours
Have we found ours yet?
We walk around the night neighborhood
Flashing on and off the light I trust falls from the sky
I would pull it in through you
And blow past the sound of quieted mouths
To little edges I would find and begin to write down
My perfect house is mainly door
And today I am full of walking
Old chalk leaving sidewalk stroke by stroke
Just as it was laid down
Add momentum to me, to the thought of me
Even more a mountain will rise and the rain will come
