lyrics

those are ugly ugly words you say
they are etched in bold letters like pictures
in my mind everything is not fine
it was late so i didn't bother calling back
just pillars on a straight line

i woke up when the sun woke up
i stood up too fast and got dizzy
i saw the little bright flares
floating to the ground
when the lightning strikes the tree
the tree might come down
but it might just get a grip on itself
get a grip and get busy

i made my rounds through the house
the ones i always make
repositioned anything that seemed out of place
wiped the dust away, let the light in
i believe in new beginnings of life in my wake
dont' you tell me i'm forever stuck in my ways
i am fire freshly lighted

and i'll burn out when the sun burns out
and i rise so slow times you may just miss it
i saw the hyacinths ponderously push throught the dirt
when the flood hits the flower the plant may unearth
but the roots may run deeper than you and i
ever could have guessed it
