There was dancing to be done
But we were in the gloom
And the burning bastard sun
Scorched out our doom
And I will be alone
I will be alone
There were stories to be told
Poems and epic writ
And the tall tales of old
Of who the Hydra never bit
But I will be alone
I will be alone
And when the basement lights
are turned back on
And you and your warmth
will be all but gone
And when the coop is flown,
And when my cover's blown,
When all the facts are known,
I will be alone
I will be alone

Through The Bayou

The static on my TV set
Pops in time with the universe
Background radiation
Belongs to all of us
Bright and sunny is the day
When we live so far away
That we can touch each
Other through the waves
The white noise on my radio
Flashes in time with mother earth
Background radiation
returns to all of us
Hear that sound? it’s my smile
The radio’s playing it for you
That we can smile to each
Other through the bayou

Sun light, day break
Can't you feel the world awake
The things in the night
Have wounded you
And the rays of the dawn
Have blinded you
And its beauty
Has confounded you
But it's a long time coming
So this is morning
Red and pink, yellow blue
Can't you feel the world in bloom

I wish I could be there to hold you
I wish I could be the one you turned to
The way you did when we were younger
The way you did when we were smarter
I watched your mouth move as you spoke my name
I watched your eyes shift as you combed your mane
The way you did when you were lying
The way you did when I was trying
I wish I could be there to help you up
I wish I could be the one to cheer you up
I watched your mouth move as you spoke my name
But you had nothing left to say
I watched your mouth move as you spoke my name
But you had nothing left to say

Lunette

Obsidian fenestration
In a matte of whitewashed wind
A flat pane portal into the dark
Out of the blizzard, you descend
Your eyes adjust to the black below
To find us clutching at our sheets
We shiver as we see your silhouette
This lunette lets out the heat
There’s nothing left to burn
The meat will rot, the milk will turn
Our father throws his bottle at a peep
And drinks himself to sleep
My sisters and I are buried in snow
And while I don’t want you to know
I need to ask, ‘cause it’s ten below
Will you close the window?
