lyrics

I wear you out
but hold your faith
as sure as day:
a thorn and shout.
______________

my toes touch the october sea --
a wave fall back to welcome me
foul overpass I lie beneath --
my train might come so I can't sleep

and you've been lurking round this hole
to pray for rain and save your soul:
a dance that happens more and more,
as hopeful as an apple core.

the sage that blossoms fragrantly --
it shelters things that I can't see
now take me to the eastern shore --
for in the snow our tracks are clear.

I lay my love down like a lamb
and spill the blood from both our hands:
to softly mingle in the mud,
O foolish great eternal blood.

will Armageddon come to call --
for I desire the slightest thrill
the unrequited multiply --
the satisfied stand still.
