lyrics

.
~ brick woman ~
.

(approximate version)

the mouth
the water
the shattered desert
the sick begin-in-nings
on his carpet now

the head and the wall
the scar on the day
the moon now at bay
the scream is himself

he has found himself
skin is on the shelf
the mouth loves the car
the mouth leaves the mark

brick
woman

on the lips the dirt
moonlight on the shirt
treading on some snails
found a crystal snail

give it to the street
gave it to the house
gravel in the eyes
drivel of the sky

the sand may still surprise
a flash on cannon fire
who decides on this
shrinking little bit

brick
woman

when you going to wear this long and lonely highway?
who am I to keep you clean in company?
what am I to say when you’re on the ground in misery?
when you going to stop this staring at the ground in solitude?
who is gonna who is gonna
who is gonna who is gonna comfort you
who’s that boy and who’s that girl and who’s that dog?
and who is going to come for you?
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
brick woman
la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
brick woman
