Rattling of the Heart
I want it to rain in the morning
Stay in silent 'til the afternoon
I've got two coins on my eyelids
And two more I could show to you
But it's just me
That's all I could give to you
Some people wait for forgiveness
Some people won't come to terms with this
Half-told jokes interrupted by
The sounds of branches breaking
The wind rattles your heart around babe
Stretch your limbs and do your back bends
Student debt and a broken bike
You were out with 'em drinking city wides
I was on my bed alone sifting through
Trash to sell to make the rent
If you listen to the rattling of the heart now
It pumps the life into the veins, I know it's true
Together we are, together we all bend out of shape
The kids keep dancing, they wear cute and irony
If I can get through the grit of all this
Maybe I can live gratefully
I lost two grandfathers in six months
They don't leave my head much
A suicide, one with vital signs
I watch him try to wake up
If you listen to the rattling of the heart now
It pumps the life into the veins, I know it's true
Together we are, together we all bend out of shape
Some find joy wielding proof of their sadness
Have you yet found a master?
Try to find for a commonly ordered axis [?]
Technology works, therapy tries
To provide a distraction
Medication's been tested, it might work the fastest
Sedated and tragic
Smiling black faces in monochromatic
Baby, there will be no more violent dreams
