For Construction & Destruction

lyrics

I swallow the sparrow.
I spit out the feathers.
I sing in the voice of another.
It’s the middle of summer,
my hand over my eyes
to shade from this thunder and heat.

Have you ever been one like me,
troubled by the light?

I drank only coffee.
I bathed in saltwater.
My clothes were ragged and bleached.
Mother forgive me
for never calling.
My brother, look over your shoulder.

Have you ever been one like me,
troubled by the night?

I run across the traffic,
a flash of white feathers,
your moment reflected in me.
There’s a scream of the tires,
the smell of black rubber,
a crack in the silence surrounds me.

Have you ever been one like me,
troubled by the night?

I swallow the sparrow.
I spit out the feathers.
I sing in the voice of another.
I stand by the window,
naked and glowing,
with a mask that covers my face.

Have you ever been one like me,
to trouble at the night,
naked and glowing?
