Strum
D-DU-UDU
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
