lyrics

I built a window
inside your eye
I set a clock to tick
on your insides
I gave priority
to all you wished
I fed your vanity

I pulled a baby
out of your hat
revived a dying dog
on your behalf
I interceded
in grave disputes
and that excited you

I wait until you come
from where you've been
and then I wait until
you leave again
I'll sit forever then
'til you come back
I'll watch the bones all slip
between the cracks

I see you in my yard
I watch you hide
I know you stumble when
there's no porch light
I hear you bark outside
my kitchen door
out by the garbage cans

Arms of Kismet Winchester, Virginia

Brooding and poppy, funny and foreboding, it’s toe-tapping, tragicomic rock ’n’ roll.
