clarissa, go uptown
and buy the flowers yourself
a few short hours more
the party's such a bore
light a cigarette
allow yourself to rest
burn your wedding gown
black cars all around
because the river's arms will gladly pull you down
god knows there's a million ways to drown
if everything's a lark
and everything's a plunge
then septimus' fall
will validate it all
because the river's arms will gladly pull you down
god knows there's a million ways to drown
when this party's poor excuse is through
another one will follow and i'll still love you

i heard the summer sea
murmuring to the shore
some endless story of a wrong
the whole world must deplore
i heard the mountain wind
conversing with the trees
of an old sorrow of the hills
mysterious as the sea's
take me with you
take me there
rip me right out of my brother's arms
just to take me there
and all that haunted day
it seemed that i could hear
the echo of an ancient speech
ring in my listening ear
and then it came to me
that all that i had heard
was my own heart in the sea's voice
and the wind's lonely word
take me with you
take me there
rip me right out of my brother's arms
just to take me there

walk down the aisle
dressed in white
the union of souls
for a lifetime
promise to give
one another
in front of our lord
praising god
man and wife in love

my mind
oh, the things you'll find:
alberta skies, a roll of dimes
surefire, as time goes by
never have i ever felt so insured
sights seen are breathing in
drinking from the stalest wine
pour me another crooked coast
never have you ever looked so good
tell them i'll say "hello"
from my heart
my darkest heart
tell them i'm singing low
from my heart
my proudest heart

laura, there are things that
outweigh here and now:
vomit on the floor,
the fear of letting go
we may not catch that bastard
but we'll pray for his return
for when i know his name
i'll beat him just the same
if wonder is a posture
that's held in low esteem
the brownness of your curls
will take over the world

have you ever felt useless?
because i have raised ten years of contempt
and harvested nothing but death
fire once walked by my side
but my tongue was tied so tight
and satan laughed in six-eight time
when our marriage did end
one million silverfish crawled into my head
and breathed forgiveness back into my breath
cutting it close
you tore your clothes
no man could say no
how could i say no
