letra de hawkmoth - paul curreri

Loading...

sunrise kicks the soot-black gun into its belt
thank god, it?s time to rise and move about!
grounded just in daybirds, waylaid very well
by the morning sun and soul all figured out

dim at first and brittle, like smoke across a table
good god, i squint, i trust this thing is stable
and though it owed me only routine, like shadows in the forest
that daylight choir lit me into chorus

big-eyed hawkmoth, rise you up
and hang where you may
if you keep a perfect distance
nectar pulses through
it was a good day!
i knew just what i knew

the train it whistled: welcome — absolute and clear
deserted houses’ ghosts were in my ear
the firmament stopped trembling and covered up its teeth
born into the whisper so to speak

big-eyed hawkmoth, rise you up
and hang where you may
if you keep a perfect distance
nectar pulses through
it was a good day!
i knew just what i knew

but come a trouncing blue jay
veteran and fluent
says, “born for nothing, i can see right through it.”
i said, “blue jay, ain’t for you to say
who’s hallowed and who is not
just for you to pick which side you’re on.”

onward till the day fades and the guitar quits the buzz
and the arm of river i’m on loses gust
till then, prize the soft initials of wetted lips that bust
to take in morning and spit out just as much

big-eyed hawkmoth, rise you up
and hang where you may
if you keep that perfect distance
nectar pulses through
it was a good day!
i knew just what i knew

it was a good day
it was
i knew just
