I had a vision that death came as a dog
that snuck up on me and,
boy, we were done
the ragged breath is all that I can focus on
the bodies moving close
heartbeat in my throat
I've seen this one before --
it makes it all the more warm within my arms and sweet within the eye
I wouldn't know what then
I guess I'd step into the marsh
gamble with the mud
see if the tide wins.
I never heard a thing from you
that's why I walk this levee alone
I never heard a thing from you
that's why I didn't ask you
I never heard a thing from you
yet some times I get it right when it comes to this time of day.
I can't stay out all night
I know what happens then
less I would commit to clinging onto time
I'd close up every door
the windows taken care of
I'd find a bottle and see what it could do
I never heard a thing from you
that's why I walk this levee alone
I never heard a thing from you
that's why I didn't ask you
I never heard a thing from you
yet some times I get it right when it comes to this time of day.
