summer blues - will burns & hannah peel lyrics

Loading...

a summer blues

the blue wall
and the house
holding here like a bur
in the shade of shiver hill

the begging and begging
for you to build again — this time
something cool and that will last
and high up in the trees
but you aren’t the man, exactly
you appeared to be
that first night on prospect street

so the hard mornings*after
mornings of frying eggs
in a sk!llet, spitting oil against
the wall, blue as a chalk hill blue
a crust of ladybirds inked
dead in the kitchen window
and guitar strings
that might rust to blue or ring forever

and my nights like a praying drunk —
smashed and alone and falling asleep
watching youtube clips
of catflish rising and taking
pigeons, teal, a dog even
off the water’s broken surface
this kind of deep dark is all i will ever earn

- will burns hannah peel lyrics
