Staring At The Sun

Cross the street from your storefront cemetery

Hear me hailing from inside and realize I



I am the conscience clear

In pain or ecstasy

And we were all weaned my dear

Upon the same fatigue



You're staring at the sun

(Oh my own voice cannot save me now)

Standing in the sea

(It's just one more breath and then I go down)



Your mouth is open wide

The lover is inside

And all the tumults done

Collided with the sign

You're staring at the sun

You're standing in the sea

Your body's over me



Note the trees because

The dirt is temporary

More to mine than fact face

Name and monetary



Beat the skins and let the

Loose lips kiss you clean

Quietly pour out like light

Like light, like answering the sun



You're staring at the sun

You're standing in the sea

Your mouth is open wide

You're trying hard to breathe

The water's at your neck

There's lightning in your teeth

Your body's over me



You're staring at the sun

You're standing in the sea

Your mouth is open wide

You're trying hard to breathe

The water's at your neck

There's lightning in your teeth

Your body's over me



(Be what you will

And then thrown down your life

Oh it's a damned fine game

And we can play all night)



You're staring at the sun

You're standing in the sea

Your mouth is open wide

You're trying hard to breathe

The water's at your neck

There's lightning in your teeth

Your body's over me



You're staring at the sun

You're standing in the sea
