You had me sorted out of everywhere
at Tiger Square,
Baby Bear, I had your name behind my eyes that time – I…
You thought I was staging hunger games there in my chair but
I could swear I was just fine, just fine that time.
You swim laps in the ocean by the park
I wave to you from the boardwalk
My mother said to keep away from there, from Tiger Square
But she’s been gone now for so long. So long.
So.
I’m bleeding horse shoes. I’m stroking hair, I’m combing hair.
I’m rusted metal. I’m fallen rock. I’m falling rocks.
The captain calls the ocean from the dock.
Tide she says.
Tide she talks.
If the image gets all twisted, untwist it.
If the door gets unlocked, then it’s unlocked.
If the singing lifts your spirit, then sing it.
Sing, talk, sing, talk, sing, talk talk talk talk.
And every night that bleeds into the dawn,
We come back together and then we move on.
So don’t be afraid, Babe.
The goose with the truth is loose.
Your animal face, your animal face has cues, clues, and you’re cute.
And oh, I see you oh.
Oh I see you.
