lyrics

The rusted red roof of the shed is alive
It's crawling with shadows
A dance in the light
Between both our houses a shotgun of grass is bending and twirling, alight?
All day. Silently standing in nobody's way.
The swing faces east and it moves in the wind
I'd write you a letter but I just can't begin
My soul, if I have one, is joyous and full
Though my pockets are empty
And I know this world can be cruel
All day. Silently standing in nobody's way.
Locked arms on the beach, just south of L.A.
In front of the frigid March waters that day
Roadside attractions of desert roads rear-viewed and fading away
All day.
Silently standing in nobody's way.

about

David Brown Bloomington, Indiana

Helicopters fly overhead. Cars rush by the window. Talkin' Neo-Nothing Blues. Escalators and hammering. A media grape-stomping.
