Now that I’m alone I feel the lonely brokeness

Of all the wicked avenues I’ve ever sold my love on

All these moments of meekness and trembling subsided

In the outright abandon of this orphan child

Home is on the highway living on soft bread and solace

I guess I’m waiting for nightfall or a solar eclipse

And to wake up half empty

 Only to be filled again with mourning

 He’s my evil shadow dove

 My black Palamito Can’t break him like a diamond skull

 I can’t seem to do so Can’t just rob him out like the

 mob used to do so Like memories of porno and tearstains

 and tobacco O its a miny disastro

 Bigger than the ice age don’t know if baby dinosaurs

 Maybe could live through it, or indians and butterflies

 What’s crushed is my spirit, O I fear it is too fragile

Like fall leaves burn like paper

I always knew I would spend a lot of time alone

No one would understand me

 Maybe I should go and live amongst the animals

Spend all my time amongst the animals

 And on the tracks I would go they lead to the sea

To be amongst the animals

Oh I’m just a fill leaf something simple and shy like that

That’s how my heart lies down beside the sidewalk

Like an empty restaurant filled with perfume and balloons

I sit and entertain the bizarre ghosts of my soul

His name still lingers maybe lactates on my tongue

Perhaps I’m just teel him for a foreign fallen destiny

Miserable but mine I look like his mother

 Or Sophia Loren in a old fashioned movie

 Slow motion motion I cling to my child desperate for love

On day soon my brother died made me remember all the

Subordinate feelings I cast aside

Maybe I had lied when I said I was ok

Just getting along like a little song that stops to sing and say

“Wild willow, windy winter won’t you blow through me

My who eternity”

I always knew I would spend a lot of time alone

No one would understand me

 Maybe I should go and live amongst the animals

Spend all my time amongst the animals

 And on the tracks I would go they lead to the sea

To be amongst the animals
