love in two parts - erin mckeown lyrics

Loading...

oh, there’s hope in poetry, comfort in fiction
like the voice of walt whitman for example

i have noticed something
you will have noticed this too
we cut the words off short
we like either or
we are the virgin and the wh-r-
you will have noticed this too

so i am led to say purely for example, purely for survival
and speaking of course from my own experience
when i’m drunk it’s easy
when i’m sober i try not to love you so hard
will not love you so hard

you will have noticed this too
for you were on the other side

in a san francisco loft you couldn’t pay for
i could feel your heart beat through the floor boards
i waved my hope around like a cheap flag
whose colours had faded
whose emblem was laughable

what is whiskey in the morning but a clear path to the door?
what would uncle walt say to the silent floorboard?
hope
hope
