Weird Waves

on my way home
waves stuck in place
hills rippling by
i dance in strange delights
way over there
think of me there
i paint my face
and run into the wild
i will carry it with me on my way
i carry it with with me home
if you just look
look to the north and stay true
cock your head to the left
squint your eyes just right
beneath the buzz
between the cracks in the earth
beneath the fuzz
me and whatever
you can see it
a willful wind on the waves
you can see it
another world beneath
purple
soft curls
in the weeds
a girl
an old ghost
a lovely glow
trapped in oak
kindling
by the fire
waves
waves
waves
i will carry it with me on my way
i carry it with me now

Pearls

pearls of heaven
for pears of earth
oh no no no
forget the heat
forget what's in the boiler room
gears keep turning
on and on
for me and you
always burning
industry ash in the month of may
no no dark humanity
the weight of the world is all on me
they always always smother the fire
and we all go cold
no no dark humanity
rotten riddles, fantasies
the never never stoke the fire
and we all go cold

Those words are words are just words
The letters they got shaken down
How'd they fit all those books together?
The wool is off the flock
Now go tend to the litter
Let the choir sing in the dark
We did all we could do
To make all things all new again
Stained glass in red, white, and blue
And we hymned for the morning
We hymned for the South
As the plate goes round the pews
Guilt on Fourth of July
But the weather is kind
Bourbon, sugar, and mint
A marionette
The stars will guide us through
And never do us wrong
Nevermind the telltales
The sea or the sails
I know that you lied
I know that you lied

I'm tired of living in right and wrong
Think I'll go someplace new
Take a sip of, a sip of summer's milk
And I go on my way
'Round the bend, desert dreams
And holy lands never seen
A tiny million holes
A tiny million souls left
Molten light, sitting on a lonely throne
Desert dreams, sinking sands
'Round the bend, fallen trees
Grown on top of everything that's even been
A tiny million holes
A tiny million souls left
Wait for me
Wait for me

Bad Cloud

I fell as rain again
Broke on the broken rocks again
I spin away with my hands out
Hide in the haze again
Calmer heads prevailed again
I never thought I'd pray to anyone else
To the east
Burst apart, come in again, no
Tossed about a lonely wind, no
Burst apart, come in again, no
Tossed about a lonely wind, no
I make my own way again, no
