I've always felt a strong pulling towards the earth in my palms Something beautiful about dirt filling the cracks left gaping Band aid measure of a tired fault The sun burns holes in my paper skin Leaving behind a ransome note for my spite Little days find longer months Bringing telephone heartbreak to the girl made of angles She pulls the mud over her eyes Bringing warmth to a time of no sunshine No time to sit, she sleeps under her old grave

Sleeping in the Dirt
I've always felt a strong pulling towards the earth in my palms Something beautiful about dirt filling the cracks left gaping Band aid measure of a tired fault The sun burns holes in my paper skin Leaving behind a ransome note for my spite Little days find longer months Bringing telephone heartbreak to the girl made of angles She pulls the mud over her eyes Bringing warmth to a time of no sunshine No time to sit, she sleeps under her old grave
