Bring Prudence
Boar In the Woods
And in the manner, in which I was told and foretold many storiesThere's a letter you wrote, dear old love in the title, that I'm holdingIt was left on my desk, in the mess of the current eventsBeneath the cluttered sheets, I thought I noticed a ghost, it's a good thing I approachedLast night I rode my bike fifteen miles from here and I felt like the wind washed off some of my hopeFine, if we can'tBe the same word,thenMaybe we can each haveOne extra letterThere used to be days when I'd wake up and I'd like meBut now that's all gone, I'm on farther than I thoughtI've tried to leave this hotel, like the two times last yearBut you know I can't do it, of all people, you know.How many times have you given away everythingBut not once have you gotten everything backI guess I'm just growing increasingly more convinced thatThere's something wrong with the way that I dreamI'm sorry that I don't blame you for a hurricaneLet alone for a gust of wind from belowIt's just unsettling to know that we could be this wrongNo, it's nothing dramatic, there's no blood on the snowIt's just, I feel like a song, that escaped from a prison down South Minnesota, Dakota, I feelLetras de cancionesAnd through the branches I hear a familiar sound, don't you know it - I heard it somewhere beforeAnd I want to go back, I'll be dragged there, please drag me somewhere - I don't care, I really don't careDo you know where to go, don't go anywhere at all, just stay here and let's wait for our love to return, like a boar in the woods, it won't touch us at all, for as long as we gave more than we took, and we made sure of that, didn't we? Didn'twe?Most of the time I spend on my own, I'm either thinking aloud or thinking about -That's how I'll start, I've been doing some thinking, and listenI've never seen a pair of shoes this tricky.They fit, made of leather, I know you don't like that, but the laces are white and the heels will last longAnd the fronts will be good for running in the rain, don't we have cinematic scenes in this film?But ever since I can remember, I've been biting my tongue,and I was told that a treasure awaits those who do,And now my feet are too big, I can't fit in these shoes,but you bought me this gift, so I keep my mouth shut.And maybe if I wait long enough, and the treasure drops itself centre on the top of my head, I'll run straight to the store, barefoot, but no morewill I be, once I buy the same pair, one size up.So why'd you leave me like this, when there's so much that I've missedcos I sat inside with you when you were feeling sickAnd I let you paint my nails and dress me up, for as long as you smiled and felt lovedWhy'd you call me a vain selfish bastard, I never understood that part.Do you know where to go, cos I don't want to go, I just get this sensation every now and again, that all I've been living and all I've been breathing, and every wall I woke up near and every mirror, and all the relatives that come once a year, and the heavy machines bythe building site have been lying, no, they haven't been lying, just pinning some flowers on the truth.Just pinning some flowers on the truth.
