The Difference In The Shades

Aug 28, 2006 03:20

This is the best song in the WHOLE WORLD...Period! Absolutely amazing & beautiful!

Now that its June, we'll sleep out in the garden
& if it rains, we'll just sink in to the mud
Where it is quiet and much cooler than the house is
& there is no clocks or phones to wake us up..
Cause i have learned that nothing is as pressing...
as the one who's pressing would like you to believe
& i'm content to walk a little slower
because there is nowhere that i really need to be
and i find that life is easier...when it is just a blur
with no details to confuse...who or what or where i was
so when the ending comes- the full regret will seem obscure.

..But these are days we dream about when the sunlight paints us gold
& this apartment could not be prettier as when we danced up there alone
this tv is old, the color's fucked- do you see the difference in the shades?
but the green is still close to green, my love
& i believe we are the same..
& we'll stay like this, all gold and green-
the light collects and projects your heart on a movie screen
& if you close your eyes
we will always be the way we were that night
you crawled inside of me
& slept in my blood the way you sleep now
the quietest hush has consumed this house
& when the doctors have gone and you sweat through the bed
with all these pictures & pills they piled around your head.
just rest now..

& in a moment you will know everything
was it all a dream?
it's too vague now to recount..
an outline of the one you loved..in a life that was not longer will be stands above you...
as you sleep.
