lyrics

Well you said you would pick me up from the airport
as soon as someone could watch your daughter, you got a couple hours
So we sit and chat, you say whats past is just that
cursing “forevers” and “at lasts” as you thumb your way carelessly
half disengaged half in disbelief
a book of photographs from 1993, I don't even recognize me

The way you behave are you particle or wave
you're both the savior and the saved
both the belly and the grave
Hosanna, Hosanna! You seal up the sum.
no I'm just the same as anyone
just a dried up corn husk
blowing away from the halcyon days of Indiana

I am not the white tower to god
I'm just the confusion of tongues
A dispersion of one
I am not the atom bomb for which you earnestly sought with your prayers each night
for to evaporate you in its light
No, I'll just pass by like a bottle rocket on the 4th of July
