lyrics

No, nothing’s different, so far as I know,
the trees still wiggling in the backyard
your mom and dad reading at home,

and my eyes work despite
the pressure of two points.
The chicken bleeding in the oven.

The ground was sharp, I was walking
with my small feet in the driveway,
and I wanted you to carry me in,
but you can’t touch me, of course.

The rain in Indiana sprayed across the windshield like a hose.
It made me happy, hollow, hard to tell the difference so far as I know.

Do you remember the chickens perched and cooing as I locked them up each night? Well, how could you?
I was alone.
