A Ab* Ab*
Styrofoam cup of mud in my good hand,
A
Disembodied voice of God in the trash can
E
Eyes in the ashes, feeling for the future
E
Sleeping through the stakeout, researching the rumor.
A Ab* Ab*
A mile, a motor, a mattress, a memory
A
First you were embarassed, but how could you not be,
E Eb Eb
Tangled in teenage, her mom at the movies,
E
Your voice ran out out of words,
C#* F# F# B A B A
It was awkward and holy.
A
Gospel in your belly, the ache a little lower,
A
Back into the breach, you spoke as it's owner.
E
A syndicated sermon you sang from the rafters
E
An Anchor in you pocket, holding down the laughter.
A
Tearing up your mind, your lust and your ego,
A
A screenshot reminder to speed your libido,
E
The parish grows to jelly, blissful and wasted,
E C#* F#F# B A B A
Your Vishnu eye slips open, them pictures of you naked

You built then burned a bridge.

Brother, can you spare your alms or your arrows?
A
Thunder clap's arising, I think that I should go
E
Home to the basement back on Jumel Street
E
1996 and your waiting there to tell me,
A
I didn't die, you dreamt it, you dreamt it,
A
I'm as alive as your best good intentions.
E
Sorry that I tricked you, you had to focus
E C#* F#F# B A B A
Put yourself together, clear out the garbage.
