Sparkle

lyrics

Feathered black angels out in the concrete, picking at a possum. Watch them spread their wings and fly at the threat of an old pontiac. Knuckles buckle, turning white, clutching at the weight. Muscles move in the shape of my mind, rigid and tumultuous. Oh cold and damp disguise, tell me where you've been. Things got real and shattered and i spent the night in the yard again. Oh Mary don't you cry, you are not obsolete. They still bow before you on the lawn of the seven sisters.
Oh, my heart can't hold a steady beat trying to sync up with these city streets but in the sparkle of the moonlit snow, i hear the precious song of the letting go. Oh sweet pride please won't you cut me loose, i feel the deadly pull of your angry noose. Oh sweet life, please won't you let me in, i've been growing tired and i'm getting thin.

and the wind, oh, it blows...

And i say "Oh sweet pain, oh how your eyes have changed! They have grown soft and warm with every dream you've slain. Oh sweet breath, please won't you take me home? Show to me all i knew back before i was born. Oh sweet Death! I will not pray your leave! I will not turn my eyes from you that day when you come for me! Cuz in the sparkle of the moonlit snow, i see the stars above just as the stars below."

and the wind, oh, it blows....
