Lighthousekeeping
The silence turned your bed into
An altar
Of sacrifice
The rain around the lighthouse made us
The only ones
Left alive
The drought has broken golden rules
Of the sanctity
Of separate lives
I wrote a letter by the way
I wrote it over and again
This town is full of bombardiers
Of cavalry
And of hidden knives
And I never thought me good enough
To save the barges
Make way for sailors home to wives
I got your letter by the way
It fucked me over
I was a prisoner
Almost bound to throw the key away
So tell me again
That I'm good enough
We'll watch the weather change
And we will disappear that way
We'll watch the weather change
We'll watch the weather change
And we will disappear that way
We'll watch the weather change
And we will disappear
An altar
Of sacrifice
The rain around the lighthouse made us
The only ones
Left alive
The drought has broken golden rules
Of the sanctity
Of separate lives
I wrote a letter by the way
I wrote it over and again
This town is full of bombardiers
Of cavalry
And of hidden knives
And I never thought me good enough
To save the barges
Make way for sailors home to wives
I got your letter by the way
It fucked me over
I was a prisoner
Almost bound to throw the key away
So tell me again
That I'm good enough
We'll watch the weather change
And we will disappear that way
We'll watch the weather change
We'll watch the weather change
And we will disappear that way
We'll watch the weather change
And we will disappear
