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