about

A song of things that had gathered moss.

lyrics

let's get on, oh let's get on
life is short, so short
so it's time to move along
let's commit to disappear
list ourselves among the dead
and lie out low
foreverbones

twisted wire men and women, made from twisted wire
pipe cleaner people, pushed and pulled together
see how they push me as they pull you
until we're glued
likes and gripes and hopes and groans
foreverbones

sweep the floor, wind the clock, change the locks, throw away the key
what was once just here has up and gone away
one day you'll wake up
and something's changed
all the old arrangements needing to be rearranged

twisted wire men and women, rend their twisted hearts
pipe cleaner people, pushed and pulled apart
see how they pull me as they push you
become unglued
fall apart to lie like stones
foreverbones
