letra de kerosene - elias hix

Loading...

and i climbed up to the roof of your house to watch the shadows come home with their sunsets
so i could fall a little farther into your kerosene waters
come here and smoke your cigarette dear

dressed in white for the slaughter of a mother’s only daughter
look how you’ve clipped tree swallow wings

so we’ll wrap up the bruises
but you can’t make their fists loosen
those tear-filled and gentian eyes

were a wife but now a mother
and watch your son and his now-father
he’ll grow tall and be a man
and they’ll say he’s his father’s son
look how these things are done

i’m praying i’m taller so i won’t fall into kerosene water because
are they not like me
and that larkspur she held
her folded hands like ocean swells
