"and if death should smell my breathing/as it pass beneath my window/let it lead me trembling, trembling/i own every bell that tolls me" -Neko Case

thin waves of argentina

some mist between my joints
some fingers on my pressure points

i will not sit down with you,
lusty old man in blue

i can see your history on your hands
your eyes reflect your lands

i will give you courtesies
that you do not give me

and that is forever your curse
it's the weight of your thirst

and the filth under your nails
all of a sudden, you turn pale

it's all in how you can't figure out what's worse
the front seat or the trunk of the hearse

and oh, how palpable, the things i've lost
what could be better than a good frost?

they are closer now than they ever were
ah, happiness is such a blur

when i had them in my fists, i wasn't on track
it doesn't really matter what you plan to pack

i'm easier to find than a cure
all that you find dirty is pure

i love with my whole heart
i know how to stop what starts

you don't haunt me anymore
you silly, silly whore

i turned him into a king
and made you a bore
