ishroyale pigeons şarkı sözleri
Fell asleep near Chattanooga
Mary said we'd made good time
It turned out I was in Atlanta
Where there were only barbs and books to bind
Precious as, boyfriends and girlfriends
Snowglobes and postcards to save you the trip
If nothing else a photograph
Pinwheels, pistons, acid tabs
Leave a window open for the pigeons to land
I would not eat this bird in front of you
I would not eat this bird in front of you
I would not eat this bird in front of you
Writing final Valentine's, bomb's coming soon
All I'd like to do is be next to you
Refuse to clean the apartment, dragnet corridors
Can't die in fresh clothes because the laundry is out of order
One of our neighbors wears pungent cologne, stuck in the elevator
Rolled a cigarette, a few weeks before
Slipped through sweaty fingers, paper torn
Missed the dartboard, pierced the trash
There's a hole in the top where rain gets in
The puncture in the side spewed water colors
Dissolved chalk, a rainbow muddled
A pigeon passed my aim and pecked at the puddle
Letter in his hand, a score to settle
I would not eat this bird in front of you
I would not eat this bird in front of you
I would not eat this bird in front of you
Carnies collect me
Carnies bring the trailers back into our town
The ravens swirled and cawed above
Amorphous shape of sound
Showers of blood
Dripping from their beaks
Brittle bones
Of field mice snap like pages from ancient tomes
Carnies collect me
Carnies bring the trailers back into our town
Priest cut through the grass like wedding gown
Each patient step he shared with sad clowns
Oversized shoes beeped like car horns
Matching pair sticking out from ' neath the elephant's corpse
Carnies collect me
Carnies bring the trailers back into our town
The day her daughter was to be born
Shot with a cannonball and stabbed with a flaming sword
Petted her body with pity, curiosity
It almost seemed like she was breathing
Pigeons, pigeons
Erupt from her stomach
Spreading her organs across the harsh beams of the sun
