lyrics

The truth will set you free
But only once it’s done with you
That spider it will breath
In wait to snatch it up from you

Your arthritic movements
Caught up in narcotic truancy
They appeared to take advantage
Of our social fluency

And now…

The things that happen
Don’t require your permission
In fact they’ll grab you by the neck
Shut you up and make you listen

Your sad charm and pricked up arm
The coin tossed up for you
Silky web of devil’s thread
Stole what was left to lose

And now…

The forced perspective
In a rectangle of sky
The loamy rain mixed with
The pain of last goodbyes

Flip my shovel ‘round
To struggle with the millstone
The shattered husks that gathered near
To share all that was known

And now…

I am a man at least
In sentimental value
Strapped into your pine box
The power shivered into

Now I see how
Superstitions are created
Simple cures for bleak unpures
That all are fated to

And now….
