You said to call when I was back in town
here I am walkin home.
I've spent enough days alone to last me awhile can I come over?
I've got some time on my hands
I am full of the space between each breath you take
whispered calls, digging for change
Like I was the one who gave you this pain
I swear I tried to make it last time
these hot northern nights never end the way you think they will
Your sister said you could use a drink and you already have a list of my sins

When the order came down, posted in all the widows, they packed a bag, got on the train to new tar paper shacks. Pride rides on the shoulders of survivors nothing could break that reservoir but the wire still binds the broken pieces of life put together again.
Respect comes down to
living above reproach
when lies are knocking at the door
searching for spies with photographs of brides
Passed down from a generation gone.
They tell the stories of before or after
and their eyes tell the stories of in between
the dust has seeped into our bones it thins our blood even years back home
The Confinement inherited
from father to son in a language heard and understood,
unspoken, because now it's English only so strangers could feel
At ease in their homes
the dust has seeped into our bones it thins our blood even years back home

When the desperation of summer fades I'm left with September and echoes like "tonight I can write the saddest lines" and I wonder how much is lost in translation how much we've forgotten
Can you keep a secret? I've got a hundred to spare and they fill the air so thick I'm choking
Dust flies in the light of the ever moving moon
Sometimes I dream that we bleed deep, Sometimes I think that we are happy, we are waiting for night like water on a fire that's burned out
Life hangs around me like gossamer shreds there are no songs about the end of the book of love and I am so restless it makes me tired, can't wait for you to come around this time
