lyrics

.
.
.
.
what were you wishing would happen tonight?
did you want to be made stable, or to be surprised?
because i'm always uncovering new ways of loving you--
I could resurrect your old notions of you, gather them up and lay them in your lap
we can make a meal of it:
eat together,
delight together again, and
.
.
.
after a billion years they can study the canyons your streams wore through me, the calm and the violent monotony
of collision,
how sharp edges grow round, then small, then blow away in the wind,
tiny but dense, like a starling that can bring down a plane into the bay,
or a year of magical thinking.
.
.
.
and maybe there is another world, where
all this didn't take, where
we're just a laugh in the other room, a
pigment of my imagination,
the doppler effect of the heart
.
.but here are the branches,
and here is the tree,
and every possibility of our crossing...
it's 9:14 now, and I'm working on my night vision and the
final cigarette of the century.
I fall like a moth to the floor,
torn wing and spinning, and
everything is sticking
sweet
to me again
and on
and on
