lyrics

The courage at bath
in the bedroom fall apart
on the car by the desk as it drills
the ears of the earth
electricity around
as the eyes fan the feather-filled fear

the fork in the freeway fades with the day
the greats with their honor help support the state

Pictures of pines
are the things I live without
given time, given space, given gain
cycle through heads
with the floodlight going dim
get the money, get the power, get the fame

the fork in the freeway fades in the sun
the bones in your closet call you by name

but my teeth aren't like yours
they are brittle and they'll break
crossing dark ocean currents
less the time that we take
for the planes plus the metal
that we bear on our backs
in the snow building angels
under tunnels by the tracks

by stars so royal that when
we will fault you again
again...

the fork in the freeway fades in the sun
the greats with their honor help support the state
