A
Now that I’m alone I feel the lonely brokeness
E
Of all the wicked avenues I’ve ever sold my love on
F#m
All these moments of meekness and trembling subsided
E
In the outright abandon of this orphan child
A
Home is on the highway living on soft bread and solace
E
I guess I’m waiting for nightfall or a solar eclipse
F#m
And to wake up half empty
E
Only to be filled again with mourning
A
He’s my evil shadow dove
E
My black Palamito Can’t break him like a diamond skull
F#m
I can’t seem to do so Can’t just rob him out like the
E
mob used to do so Like memories of porno and tearstains
A
and tobacco O its a miny disastro
E
Bigger than the ice age don’t know if baby dinosaurs
F#m
Maybe could live through it, or indians and butterflies
E
What’s crushed is my spirit, O I fear it is too fragile
Like fall leaves burn like paper
A E
I always knew I would spend a lot of time alone
F#m
No one would understand me
E
Maybe I should go and live amongst the animals
A E
Spend all my time amongst the animals
F#m E
And on the tracks I would go they lead to the sea
To be amongst the animals
A
Oh I’m just a fill leaf something simple and shy like that
E
That’s how my heart lies down beside the sidewalk
F#m
Like an empty restaurant filled with perfume and balloons
E
I sit and entertain the bizarre ghosts of my soul
A
His name still lingers maybe lactates on my tongue
E
Perhaps I’m just teel him for a foreign fallen destiny
F#m E
Miserable but mine I look like his mother
A
Or Sophia Loren in a old fashioned movie
E
Slow motion motion I cling to my child desperate for love
F#m E
On day soon my brother died made me remember all the
Subordinate feelings I cast aside
A
Maybe I had lied when I said I was ok
E
Just getting along like a little song that stops to sing and say
F#m
“Wild willow, windy winter won’t you blow through me
E
My who eternity”
A E
I always knew I would spend a lot of time alone
F#m
No one would understand me
E
Maybe I should go and live amongst the animals
A E
Spend all my time amongst the animals
F#m E
And on the tracks I would go they lead to the sea
To be amongst the animals
