lyrics

KEENING

Keening like some awful voice, wordless and without a choice
Whipping around buildings, disturbing the pigeons where they sleep

Barely in this chair at all, nod and smile and wait to go

Water your thoughts down, pass them around, watch them tumble around

Your words are moving in and out
Your images moving in and out

Leave your shoes on the stairs, crack the window
New socks are kissing floorboards, breeze-blown hair tickles ears

Find it when you’re letting go - everything you didn’t know
Water your thoughts down, pass them around, watch them tumble around

Your words are moving in and out Your image is moving in and out
