Tears for the weddings, smiles for the funeral
Stay in the car, you know you’re not as useful as you were
Oh, what now?

(England) is always better (as you're pulling away)
Tears for the weddings, smiles for the funeral
Stay in the car, you know you’re not as useful as you were
Oh, what now?

I have moved into the shadow
Sunday, March 15, 2009
..In letters from my sister, she asks me how I’m feeling
I say that I am better, but I lie in every letter
I have moved into the margin, I have moved into the shadow
Move closer to the fire, or else you’ll meet the ghost
I loved you like a brother, I loved you more than most
But still you left me vacant, still you left me cold..

The Biggest Lie
Wednesday, March 4, 2009
She said, "It's ok - you'll feel better every day
and all memory of this will fade away"
And that's the biggest lie and I just wonder why
when love dissolves we don't all just die
I sat by the lake when everyone had gone home,
nothing on my body but the sadness I had on
I felt death's elbow nudging at my ribs, telling me to let go -
I don't deserve to live
She said, "It's ok - you'll feel better every day
and all memory of this will fade away"
And that's the biggest lie and I just wonder why
when love dissolves we don't all just die
Liar

You can never get lost (when you’ve nowhere to go)
Monday, February 9, 2009
I know nothing of tides
and I’m confused by the stars
but you can never get lost
when you’ve nowhere to go.
And I’ve got space in my heart
for the next twenty years
so don’t think there’s a rush -
just come on over sometime.
And I will haunt myself blind,
only sleep when I’m bored.
And I will talk into space.
And I will worry this house.
And I’ve got space in my heart
for the next twenty years
so don’t think there’s a rush -
just come on over sometime..

..I have a photograph - mid-heaven, post-laughter
Eyes shine ridiculous - illuminate the both of us
In the fold of a camera's eye, in the time it takes to sigh
I open up an ashen heart, pour out a thousand whys
Handle with care if only you dare,
I'm sensitive, touch sensitive
Handle with care if only you dare
I'm sensitive, touch sensitive..

Crown of the lost
Thursday, January 15, 2009
The night settles down on the water
The feathers of sun gathering
The trees wave their way to the morning
The birds think about what they'll sing
I have dreams in which you're a nightmare
I have dreams in which you're unfair
But angels still dance in your garden
and flowers still grow in your hair
My tears leave a skull on the pillow
My tooth leaves my blood on the sheet
My heart sways the way of the willow
My heart sways the way of the wheat
But you are the queen of the lowlands
You have the crown of the lost
I found you broke up like a shipwreck
I found you broke up on the rocks
The horses come in from the cliff tops,
their shadows upsetting the sea
The waves swim their way to the bottom
and stay there until they're forgotten
And you know about birds when they're dying
How they know that they're going to die
How they hide in the heart of the forest
and sleep until death chances by
You know that

I can’t get on. I can’t get on.
Because I live in the past and it’s too strong.
I can’t get on. I can’t get on. Because I live in the past and it’s too strong.
And the present is imperfect. And the future, well, it’s conditional.
And the past’s a foreign land that I’m trying to understand.
And all the girls are framed in the order that they came.
And the best friends do their worst to remind me that I’m cursed.
And I’d just like to say that I’m sorry to everyone
that just wants to get on, that just wants to get on but I...

Not Fair
Thursday, April 10, 2008
Run away when you see me coming
And I can only say, "Not fair - this is not fair"
Miles away, reading, writing books
Look outside with imagination - I'm here and I'm sad
I' here and I'm sad

None of us are what we were..
Tuesday, January 8, 2008
None of us are what we were
I know you've heard this all before
I know you've heard this all before
I know you've heard this all before
But none of us are what we were
But it's a dark age, a dangerous time
I'm on the last page, the end of the line
But it's a dark age, a dangerous time
I'm on the last train, the end of the line
Outside the bar on the road to the Madrid
A curious frost settled down on my ribs
These were the badlands, the sad lands
I wanted to leave but i wanted to give
But it's a dark age, a dangerous time
I'm on the last page, the end of the line
But it's a dark age, a dangerous time
I'm on the last train, the end of the line
Whispered in song in the tops of the trees
"Tears are the only rain that we see"

"Tears are the only rain that we see"
I get up too late to wave off the night
