A of chalk across the blue Lord knows I don't know what the the use of the midday moon You came to my arms too soon knows I don't know what to do with you and the midday moon
This is to say They've everything away Every step we made fit into six Pick-ups drawing dust the driveway
The muddy cavalcade came at half eight Collecting everything in that bank And every of you was taken too And what was once a womb is just a room
It was a day kind that makes me hate L.A. 'Cause God gave a perfect sun And they think and smog were hardly a fair trade
They don't or flinch Or even blink at how the will shift When the wind across the meager ridge And the weeds a bit to make seem as if the lea is a sea of waves
They say you cheat death Maybe it's just a shortness of Or no pains in your A disease we agree that we cured yet
Forgive me I never thought that we'd end up From ["sweet dreams"] in your ear Before a long sleep so cold and clear
A sliver of chalk across the Lord knows I don't know what the hell's the use of the midday You to my arms too goddamn soon Lord knows I don't what to do with you and the midday moon
I've been told that when we die we pass onto the other there's no light, no bright light. Death is just a gate that opens by lifting a plank To just life, just more life
I met an old man, sun-tanned, provided by And the light that through stain glassed pieces He clutched a flat to his chest And confessed he ready for death
I an iron eyed firefly, femme fatale Too vain to explain how her fell out Lusting for the next to erase her shame She want to live forever, but she's scared to fade away
This is how they came to me, one at a Pilgrims to my building on the cemetery All they was an answer and I could never let 'em down I couldn't promise them but I could buy a lot of time
You Jeanvieve, you the straw your wishes in cotton Quebeois I wonder if the Maker ever felt he the flock But never had the mettle to the world stop Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop,
[I wonder if the maker ever he botched the flockBut never had the mettle to make the world stop] Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop,
[I wonder if the maker ever he botched the flockBut never had the mettle to make the world stop] Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop,
A of chalk across the blue Lord knows I know what the hell's the use of the midday moon You came to my arms too goddamn Lord knows I don't know what to do with you and the midday
A sliver of across the blue Lord knows I don't know what the hell's the use of the midday You to my arms too goddamn soon Lord I don't know what to do with you and the midday moon
