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