lyrics

I broke a wheel trying to get up to you,
on this tangled wire of road.
This time the omen is neither
hoot nor crow;
it’s the dark whistle of our abode.
Maybe this house is no destination.
I leave my shoes on all the time.
I put my head through the wall again.
I wrecked our home;
I wrecked my spine.

I heard the sound all above me.
Wings cutting air like swinging rope.
The thing was trying to get across to me
something I didn’t want to know.
A caw is something like a handsaw:
all dark and oily, Feathered Crow.
All is silent but for the jump rope.
Oh…

We had our wine and we are
drunk again.
All fall-bright white sun and coloured groves.
Fermented fields all in tangled flight.
They hover low; we’re all aglow.
But these days went as they always go.
The weather bowls and the sap slows.
All bright white snow and the
long old night.
And the sky is pale against the crow.
