What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
You've made it clear, your intentions
2
nearly breaking every tooth
3
that's rattled long in a grin that's gone
4
and fallen out of use
5
Short of making an arrow-straight escape
6
below a cough
7
I couldn't say that you've found yourself a gait
8
for walking off
9
There's a reason to stay in the weeds
10
and as long as you're laughing
11
and seeking them out
12
You can come and go as you please
13
and know that you're only
14
as tall as you sound
15
Put your shovels down now and tell me what you're worth
16
by beating blue
17
every inch of too-forgiving earth
18
for giving through
19
He's happy being a nickel to your purse
20
and living to, and living to
21
see the day that you count yourself for worse
22
and send him deep
23
into the water
24
They never keep, the faces that you seek
25
and you can hardly calm them or tease a smile
26
out of what will never hold a crease
27
(though it couldn't hurt to palm them
28
the smallest while)
29
I could try and round up the darlings
30
that we sent to play
31
but they're only ours when
32
they're far away
33
It's a lying tongue that lifts you high
34
It's only as strong as you are light
35
and eager to buy
36
what's yours to take
37
(I heard foolish girls
38
grow shorter
39
by the
40
day)
41
There's a saying that sounds in the deep
42
You know, you know
43
but you want to be told
44
what was playing that drew you to sleep
45
but nothing to speak of has pulled on your lobes,
46
and nothing to speak of has left you alone
