may you weep among the silent golden rushes of the sun
may you sleep tossing dreams back and forth across the finish line
may you smile standing among the shadows of the spirit world
may you stare silently at the figures bowing out of the mirror
may you run slipping along motionlessly the ice cracking behind you
may you wind slowly in and out of a powerless movement of grace
may you swim dancing across the oceanographer's dreams you toss back and forth across the finish line
may you be small
may you be silent
may you be strongperformance:dennis harvey: all instruments | voice

watch yourself drowning yourself
watch you leave
maybe you'll stop
watch your feet
slipping on the balustrade
as you grin
sliding down the wall you will
sliding down the wall you will
one surprise then the other
takes you away
should you feel a body next to you
don't last long
see me at the wall you will
see me at the wall you will
make you a simple and reticent heart
try on the armor while it falls apart
pick up the pieces and label it art
watch yourself drowning yourself
watch you breathe
maybe you'll stop
watch your hands beating at the waves
you wave back at him

i wake up at 10:00
and come home tired and hungry
around noon
did you think i wouldn't give a fuck
about the sideways jabs at my career
no i don't think so
i don't think so
don't think so
vine vide vice
look it's a job
and do i need a constant reminder
of how much better you are
no i don't think so
i don't think so
don't think so
i feel sick as a pike
i feel sick as hell
don't touch me there
oh god not again
no i don't need your help
please just pretend i'm not here
go about your business
i feel fine
i feel fine
i feel fineperformance:dennis harvey: all instruments | voice

Spilt milk tension
You burned the house down
Since then
You stared holes into the ceiling
Wishing for weightlessness
Stress mess
Trees bend to slap you as you pass
As if you had offended nature itself
(Since you said you had to go to see to how to take two I too had to see to how to stop you)
Stop drop roll
Kettle condensation
Stare at the telephone
Drone clone
Smash your head
Against the slot machine
Dreams seem not effective anymore
You swore you detected a secret door
Since you said you had to feel love
You're never satisfiedperformance:dennis harvey: keyboards | voice

and when we walk
there's nothing between us and the earth
and when we fly
there's nothing between us and the air
and when we speak
there are moments passing between us
and when we dance
there are stars
and when we dig
there are secrets that we unveil
and when we swim
we wash away the mud
and when we feel
there is nothing else to say
and when we sleep
there are times when i want to walk
and fly and speak and dance
and when we're waiting
at the station
for a train to come and take us away
i look over
at the guards and the dogs
and the guns and the cuffs
and the clubs and the boots
and i turn
to see your face and the tears
and the eyes and synapses
and diodes and wires
and i say
don't worry girl just hold onperformance:dennis harvey: all instruments | voice
